What is your plan for 1st April? ( April fool)

I don't fall into the category of people who practice this April fools day thing. However, I have become a victim of this. There was a time when an officemate told me to go see the boss. Supposedly it was an urgent matter about the study, a paper I just submitted. Of course, I went, I cannot cross the boss, right? It's good that the boss was in his light mood when I entered his office and inquired about what he had to say about the study I just submitted. At a loss, he said that he cannot give any comment as he has not gone through it yet. Realizing that it was April 1st when his eyes wandered at the wall calendar, he blurted out a good laugh. We were both victims for the day.

I don't tend to do April Fools nowadays - in the UK, it tends to be more something that kids do. I used to do things like make boiled eggs for breakfast, eat the eggs, and turn the shell upside-down in the egg-cup, then give it to whoever I wanted to fool, so when they broke the shell it was empty! But remember that you have to do your April Fool jokes before mid-day, otherwise the person playing the joke becomes the April Fool! So perhaps I'll stay in bed until midday :-)

It seems like I get fooled every year just for the fact that I always forget it's April Fools day. I always remember when I get that first prank pulled on me.
