Ooooopsie!! Texting Gone Wrong

Misfired texts; a pup and a juicer got strangely suggestive.

Hahahaha.....

This, as usual, was great fun to read. I can't decide whether I love Brunhilda or your high school friend better. But you---you I inkow I adore.

The dog video was too funny. And now I'm off to read some Haribo reviews on Amazon.

Peace.

Keep writing.

This is really so funny Mary, and also very well written. I like how your Bruni takes over. A write with a lot of spunk.
'I saved a denim MooMoo of my hers,...' delete 'my'
'Text to Alan.' But later on you call him Allen throughout.
A great read. All the best. Ulla:)))

    Thank you so much, Ulla. What a keen set of eyes you have, two spags that escaped the rest of us! Go you 😄 (both corrected) I appreciate your review very much.

Ok that was awesome! I love texting bloopers and sometimes I want to destroy my AutoCorrect. I firmly believe it was designed to sabotage us, really, I am not being paranoid, it is out to get us.
That was so funny, I love how you made the story so real, this is just how our everyday lives are now. We rely so heavily on our phones and we don't use them for talking we frantically text away and get ourselves into all these embarrassing situations. We text our boss how pissed we are at our partner and then end up apologizing to our boss for forgetting to change to a different person in our messaging and then they want to know why we are arguing with out partner on company time. BUSTED! Oh well, welcome to our world today.
Thank you for an enjoyable read.

    Thank you so much, lufoster, loved reading your review, and I would have to agree-texting, autocorrect and speed bumps are the scourage of the planet, oh, and politicians 🙄 thank you so much for the RR&R!

Mary, Mary, Mary! I would have loved "to make your Monday even better" by leaving a review then, but I only just now have found time to read this (work seriously gets in the way!). I love that your writes ALWAYS make me laugh ... and out loud too! Wayne was shooting me weird looks as I sat cackling in front of my computer screen. I'm sure he thinks I've finally lost it. :)

You have the great knack for making an already funny situation downright hilarious! I love it when Brunhilda pipes up.

This, like your other stories, is a great write. Very entertaining! Extremely well written with great flair and spunk. I loved it all, but some of the standouts for this reader are:
- you're going to blow up faster than a chubby puppy at a bacon bliss party
- the entire history of the stop work/weight gain is one that I think just about every woman can relate well to. I know I can.
- heavy rocking .... clever
-Brunhilda hopes the rides comes with a phenomenal dessert tray
- 'This fooooking scale lies like a bitch' ... hey, so does mine!
- She insists my bloodtype is O+ sugardough with a trace of butter
- I laughed SOOOO hard at the Jack LaLaine bit "harnessed and pulling seventy boats loaded with weights and fat people to shore" .... I was surprised to see your video to realize that there was an element of truth to this ... that is one fit man!!
-carrot cookie .... with carrot crossed over
- we'll give you $15.00 for it ... also crossed over ... a very clever technique
- grandbabies (plural indicates a force not to be reckoned with)
- Would you like to make your Thursday better? ... THIS was the funniest line of all !! One could just imagine the look on Mr. Juice Seller's face when he read that.
- "He'll show up in a camero wearing a karate jacket playing a cassette of Volare, asking "Where do I plug in the juicer, I'm making Pina Coladas" .... hahaha ... I think I ran into this guy before.
- Bringing the 'Haribo Gummi Bears' into this write from another write was also a fun and clever thing to do.

Keep 'em coming, Mary! A very enjoyable read!

    MADE MY FOOOOOOKING THURSDAY!!! Monday who??? LOL. I am happy to provide the endorphin fill required to get through this life journey :) Your six was absolutely awesome and definitely made up for the trey the same story was awarded by someone who will remain muted and nameless (wink, wink) Just because I love overusing ( )'s! I loved hearing of your favorite parts and can just picture your husband with the looks :) I hope Wayne is feeling better now that all that is behind him.

    Have an awesome Thursday!! XO
reply by bichonfrisegirl on 13-Oct-2016
    Yes, you sure did provide me with those 'feel good' endorphins by making me laugh. Laughter is the best medicine, as you know all too well.

    Thanks for asking. Wayne is doing just great ... better than expected, Mary.

    You have a great Thursday too! :)

"Would you like me to make your Thursday better?"-- great humor in this piece. This being Thursday, I thought it apropos. Forty bucks for a used juicer? Boy, do I have some things to sell you, lol. I love your adventures.

Take care,
Russell

    Hi Russell, you just did, thank you very much :) Don't laugh when I tell you most were going for $60 -- same brand! Brunhilda was right again...I should have gone for the $15 offer :) Thanks again for stopping by! Much appreciated! Have a great weekend :)

Mary as per your usual, you are hysterical. Now Brunhilda, she's my kind of girl. Well I can see where she would be annoying. Definitely... you are so funny. Yes, texting can get you in trouble. I have a few funny ones myself.
Excellente!!!!!! Jimi

Your experience proves that multi-tasking is not that effective. "Would you like me to make your Thursday better?"
What a howl. Good thing you backpedaled. Hey, maybe that's why he sold you a blender that spewed green juice instead of... (use your imagination)
Your cocky humor as always. (No pun intended)

Another great story that brought smiles to my face.
Siome of my favorites:
I sniped back that I'd been packing heat since menopause arrived on a jet fueled rocket in 2011.
Brunhilda suggested if the 'T' was removed from thorny and Donald Trump was delivering the juicer, I might have had a "situation" that could not have been contained in any of Hillary's emails, top secret or otherwise.
A juicer would eliminate scaring the grandbaby with Hanni-Granny-Lector nightmares.
I also buy my cheaters from Dollar Tree. Thanks for the laughs. Mary

This was quite a read. But I read it twice. Once, as you
wrote it and the second time backward. I think I got a
better handle on this the second time.
Many of us can testify to selling or buying on CL.
Your escapade was a true joy to read, as well as
your dialogue Allen and GD. But especially Allen.
I could not find any spags which is remarkable and I
found the dialogue to be so natural. -Bill

    I knew I would one day win you over with my fooooook's, Thomas. Thank you for the RR&R, and the laughs. I can't believe you don't like my caricature drawing compliments of another phone app :)

    Have a great evening!
