A Slice of Pie


 How Rog got his nickname
Back to Full Blog  

Do you have a favorite memory that makes you laugh each time you think of it? It may not be funny to anyone else but it cracks you up every time? I do. And it is one of how Rog got his nickname. It makes me giggle every time it pops into my head. It came to me again last night at work and got me laughing all over again.

Several years ago, probably 15 or better now. I was making up a grocery list to take to the store with me. Rog and I were going through the fridge and the cupboards to see what we were low on, what I needed to pick up. I asked him to check and see if we needed cereal or not. He pulled the box of Cheerios out of the cupboard shook it and then raised it over his head to look into it ( I don't know why ) The Cheerios came pouring out onto the top of his head and shoulders. He look at me with such astonishment. You know the " how the hell did that happen?" look. He had Cheerios balancing on his shoulders and on the top of his head.
And a look of true disbelief on his face and just I lost it! I was rolling on the floor. Every time I tried to stop laughing I'd think of the look on his face and the little Cheerios on top of his head and would crack up all over again. And he just kept saying "it's not that funny Pie" over and over. But it was! It still makes me laugh today. And every few years it will hit me and I'll start laughing out of the blue. Rog just looks at me now and says "Cheerios?" All I can do is nod my head.........

Morning Pie, funny story! I can see to cheerios on top of his head!!! Once when I was in college I was hanging out with a group of kids. One of them, the star jock of the group, was showing off. He decided to show us his hurdling skills and tried to jump over a chair. His foot caught to back of the chair and it fell on top of him. Well...after we determined that he was OK we spent the next hour crying because we were laughing so hard...I can still see him now!!!

Oh, Pie, this is hilarious. I can just picture him there with the 'how did this happen' look.
