Blah

Kids are sick. No big deal, just colds and just enough to make them grumpy. Waiting for the safelite man to come and fix my husbands windshield for the THIRD time! They were actually going to send the original "master of the windshield" out AGAIN! Seriously, they need to get their shit together. Luckily, my husband is at work and wont know about this debacle until he reads this. I took care of it and FINALLY, they are sending the real "Master" to our house. After the 18 year old came the second time and crapped up the window, I had second thoughts about using this company! I doubt we ever will again.

So, just a sweet good morning to my readers. I am disappointed with the text talk turnout and I am going to see what I can do to get more people involved. Prizes? Rewards? A gold medal? Instant gratification from yours truly for being clever and awesome? The skys the limit and I hope to be uber clever this time. Hummmm.... it may be a few weeks. I'm going on vacation next weekend, July 4th. I will have no computer access. What ever shall I do! 5 days of no blogging! I'll be back with an entire book to post. So stay tuned.

Well, if you have any ideas or requests for the text talk challenges or if you just want to leave me a comment, please do! They make me all warm and fuzzy inside! Nice to know your out there, loving or hating my antics. Ho hum....I think I hear a truck in my driveway. Lets see how it goes. I'm still in sweats....no I don't care!

Thank you so much for playing. I think my favorite guess was Good God I'm So Pregnant. You crack me up! I'll have a new post tomorrow for this weeks Text Challenge. I hope we have more participants!

Text Talk Challenge #1

So let's see what you do with this one. Remember, come up with as many forms of this as you can and post it in my comments. For challenge directions, see text talk...my previous post. Thanks for playing!

This weeks challenge is:     GGISP

It's probably a little easy, but it's the first one. Good luck!

Text Talk: The Challenge

I  simply do NOT understand text talk. I am a frequent texter, but I don’t usually shorten my words/phrases. I guess I write an e-mail in my text. I use punctuation and spell most things out. I occasionally use the letter u for you, but that is the extent of my texting abbreviations. I do think that some of these texting acronyms are quite clever but have confused them several times leading to somewhat inappropriate texts or just plain confusion.

So in honor of our new found texting world, which I don’t particularly agree with, I have decided to think of a new acronym each week. I will come of with some letters and their meaning. Then I will ask all of you to come up with your own version of the set challenge and post it in the comment box.

At the end of the week, I will announce what I had originally intended the phrase to be. It could be any set of letters and they may also already exist. Chances are they will. Some weeks their may be 3 letters LOL - laugh out loud, and some weeks their may be more. I’m not listing any because I can’t think of one that already exists....oh wait, from my old school rapper music days.... CREAM: Cash Rules Everything Around Me.... yep, I know that one... wow, I’m so not a fan of rap anymore. Its funny what you remember. I will post my challenge later today. I would normally like it to begin on Monday and end on Sunday. I realize that today is Thursday, but I just can’t wait. Lets start it today and end on Sunday, 8pm. After that, I will post my version and also my favorite “your” version.

You are all so clever I can’t wait to see what you come up with! Feel free to post more than one! There are no rules, that I can think of yet. If we ever need them, I’ll let you know!

Good Luck!
