Abstract

"Hey, don't panic now," I said to a friend yesterday. We were coming out of the library and I had on my deadpan serious face. "But there's a strange looking winged thing crawling into your hair." Her hand went up to her head like a shot, and I yelled "April Fool!" Later on, I couldn't tell what hurt more - my sides from the non-stop laughing we did, or my arm from where she justifiably socked me.
