I just laughed SO HARD at a joke that a Spanish colleague was trying to tell at work that I started to cry. And then I almost got hysterical laughing and giggling at myself for reacting to the joke and for the reaction my reaction generated among my colleagues.
<Pause. Insert fact that I work in an office with an open floor-plan.>
Yes, there were approximately 9 of us sitting here, bouncing up and down in our chairs with huge grins on our faces, trying not to make a huge outburst out of it, until tears started rolling down my cheeks and the jokester came over to try to calm me down.
That’s the second time it has happened to me since I’ve been here! Chicago never did that to me, what the heck??
