Pinterest Postings Tell All

I love Pinterest.

It's like shopping without the clutter.

You don't have to dust it, move it, pull pages out of it.

There's no need to purchase different colored folders to keep the articles for 'someday.'

Heck, they do it for you.

I've spent hours and hours daydreaming, snickering, pinning and emailing different pins.

Instead of 'honey do' lists, hubbys now dread hearing, "Dear, wait till you see what I found on Pinterest."

They cringe, I tell you.  More eye rolling husbands exist today due to Pinterest.

I learned something else interesting about Pinterest: What you or your friends are interested in is posted there in plain sight for anyone who wants to get acquainted.  Or stalk.

Talking to a friend the other day, she shared that she had very few pins on her health board, but over 100 pins on her recipe  board.  Mine is glutted with cute pets  and rude sayings.  Very few (if any) recipes.

So I came up with a great way we can interact with other pinners like my friend.  She is more than welcome to try her recipes on me.

I, in the meantime, will play with and pet any available cute animal while making rude comments.

More Mis-Adventures

I promise you the stories I share with you are real.

When I describe clumsy, distracted, unbelievable situations that happen to me I ain't lying.

So here's a new one for you:

This past week I really tried to buckle down and get some paperwork done.  Yes, I procrastinate, mostly because I forget what I'm supposed to do until it's almost too late to do it.

Not THIS time- I promised myself.

So I settled down at my desk, got my files ready, charged up my cell phone and began returning phone calls to insurance companies I was supposed to contact weeks earler.

I certainly didn't think I'd misdialed: I mean, they give you many many (many many) numbers from which to choose.  Certainly ONE of those numbers would start me in the right direction.

I should have known something was wrong when the voice that answered the phone was one of a young lady who just sounded too happy.  No insurance company really has employees that sound that chipper, do they?

I became suspicious when this young lady asked me if I like to have fun.

Have fun?  I'm calling an insurance company.  They don't really care if I have fun.  They want my provider number and any other number I can come up with.  They mean business.

Ooooohhhhhh....I listened further.  This young lady was suggesting I didn't need to be lonely tonight.

I hung up.  And started laughing.

OF COURSE I dialed a 'dating service' number instead of an insurance company!

No lie.
