Yesterday at a small family gathering I was taken to task (just a little) about needing to update my blog. Apparently the photos of the tree and advent calendar are getting a little stale. Sorry about that…’Tis the season.

Here are a few things that made me laugh recently, and I hope they make you laugh as well.

1. Facebook – I sometimes fall into the cryptic trap whereby I will post a single word or phrase. Case in point – last weekend I typed “Snowmaggedon” (a movie on the SyFy channel). Well, some of my friends in other states took that to mean I was getting a lot of snow where I lived. Ha!

2. Facebook – Peter Parker and I went out to view Christmas lights on a cold night last week. What I meant to type was “Burberry scarf makes her debut,” but what my happy fingers typed and posted was “bur.” Well this was misinterpreted by some of my friends to mean that I was cold. Understandable, but still amusing. (of course I would have spelled it brrrr, but that’s okay).

3. Breakfast – I had breakfast with my parents and brother yesterday whereby my dad was drinking hot tea and my brother and mother were drinking coffee. Kevin, ever the solicitous chap, refilled everyone’s cups with coffee all around. The only problem was my dad was drinking tea!
