Comment from Rachelle Allen
Hahhaha. Yes, Autocorrect is one of THE worst inventions of our time. I had a piano student's mom once who texted me that she needed to cancel her daughter's herpes. I texted back and said, "Wow! I don't blame you; I didn't even realize that was an option!" She was obviously mortified and texted back immediately, "OMG!! That was AUTOCORRECT!! It was supposed to be I needed to cancel her LESSON." I texted back, "Thank you, Captain Obvious." We still laugh about it to this day, though.
So, adorable entry - definitely funny, as the prompt required. I'm wondering, though: Did you mean to write "and f," or should that have been "AN" f?
Good luck in the contest.

Thanks for the catch. Guess my Autocorrect, doesn't always correct. Enjoyed your story. And I did not proofread. You caught me.

Lol. That's like my piano students. An adult one once told me, after we'd finished a duet, "I have a secret; I wasn't counting." I said, "It wasn't a secret." Proofreading's like that, too; we ALWAYS get caught when we don't do it, right? xo

it did make me laugh, I can absolutely relate, I am not a natural proof reader, I rely heavily on auto correct, and despite that often submit with errors, I know it drives people crazy, but its great to be able to laugh about it, thanks for sharing.

You made me smile here, I never use autocorrect as it often writes nonsense and it makes us lazy too. This is a fun post for the contest, I wish you luck, love Dolly x
