Happy Puppet Syndrome

Angelman Disease is an uncommon nerogenetic disorder characterized by metal retardation, abnormal gait, absence or near-absence of speech and an inappropriate happy demeanor, including laughter, smiling and excitability.
Abnormalities may include small head, deep set eyes and a large, wide mouth.
The uncoordinated gait, laughter and facial features have caused some people to refer to this disroder as the "Happy Puppet Syndrome".

Call me cold-hearted, but I found this hysterical, causing me to call Angela and tell her about it. This resulted in us having a cross-country "laugh until we cried" fit.
And then, even when the fun was over and we'd moved on to other topics, I was still laughing uncontrollably...
Maybe I have Happy Puppets... :)

I'm laughing here right now just reading this! I forgot about the facial features part. heehee...

Yeah, now I just look marginally insane giggling to myself over in the corner...
