Phone story No. 1. - A couple of weeks ago, I made a phone call to a friend of mine who just happens to be our Aflac representative. I was calling to check on something, got his voice mail and left a message. I was hurrying and driving (yes, I know...I usually don't drive and talk on the phone, but I did this time) and when I got to the end of my message to him, I said..."I love you." and hung up. As SOON as I hung up, I thought...Did I really just say I love you to him??? I immediately realized what I had done...and I actually BLUSHED! Yes, by myself, in my vehicle and I blushed! ME! So, thinking about it for a couple of minutes, trying to figure out why in the hell I had said it... I thought, well, he'll understand and know what I did...then I thought, I'd better call BACK and leave an apology explaining myself. Oh yeah, let's do that...let's call BACK.
It was like that episode of King of Queens when Keri is talking to her boss who has the same name as her husband...and says, "Okay, Doug, I love you." but, in my case, I'm just stupid! They don't have the same name!
So, I called back, laughing...apologized...said that I did love him, but I had said it like I was talking to John, my hubby. Later on that night, he messaged me and said he laughed so hard at the first message...and then the second voice mail came in and he was roaring at that one...you know, the apology for saying I love you to someone that is not your husband! So funny. I do believe that is the first time I've blushed since college 25 years ago.
Phone story No. 2. I had a friend who had surgery on some private parts a few weeks back. You know, from having babies, getting older...we've all had them!
So, me...being me...I get out my cell, scroll down to her name and dial. She answers, and because I was talking to one of my best friends, I said..."hey, how's your butthole?" She said "What???" I said..."how's your bootie doin'?" She said..."excuse me?"...then I'm thinking...ought oh. I said, is this so and so? She said "yes." I said...is this so and so so and so?(first and last name) she said "No, This is so and so." (Same first name)...I realized I had dialed my sister- in- law who has the same first name as my friend. I said...Oh....this is Carolinn...I dialed the wrong so and so!! She was cracking up! Unbelievable.
Both of these calls took place on the same day. I'm dubbing these Phone Crashes.
Have a great weekend, peeps. :)
Totally excellent.
