i had a blackberry
{actually 2}
& i loved them...
like an unnatural love for a phone kinda love.
it died, suddenly & unexpectedly,
a few months ago.
i seriously considered
burying it in the backyard
with a proper ceremony, and all.
well, after the tragic ending of my blackberry's life,
i was forced to get a touchscreen phone...
with autocorrect.
{do you have any idea how much
trouble autocorrect can get someone
like me into?!?!?!}
well, let me just tell you ...
someone texted me a few days before
priss's birthday & asked what she wanted for her big day.
well, did you know the autocorrect for
"corndogs" is "condoms"
?!?!?!?!?!?!
well, it is on my phone!!!!
can you imagine the horror after i pressed send?!?!
& can you imagine the backpedaling
i had to do to explain that my
8-year-old daughter did NOT, in fact,
want condoms for her birthday,
but wanted corndogs?!?!?!
you know that old carpenter's rule:
measure twice, cut once???
well....
read twice, send once!!!!
live & learn!
