I had to take my Prius in today for an oil change. There was a software update they wanted to do
at the same time so I was stuck at the dealership for two hours. I had just started reading The Cockroaches by Jo Nesbø so I wasn’t upset
about having to sit around for a couple hours.
But at one point, I took a break to look at Facebook and decided to
update my status to tell the world where I was...as if the world cares. But this is how the rest of the conversation
went:
From my aunt: Did you get a recall notice?
Me: Yes.
They are updating the software.
Otherwise, it’s the usual countenance.
Gives me a good chance to dead.
Me: I mean maintenance. I don’t know where countenance came from.
Me: AND I meant READ. Dead…what’s up width that??
Friend from
Canada: fb is in your puter
correcting your spelling for you…LOL!
Me: They took a lot of leeway with width.
Me: Or maybe that’s the Olde English-speaking.
Me: Wow!
This thing is out of control today.
Friend from Ohio: This is hilarious! At least it didn’t change Prius to Reince
Priebus.
Me: What?
Lol.
Friend from Canada: Prius?
Wait for it…Pretence…fb is testing your patience and listening to you
wine…er…whine.
From my aunt: I have an appointment Wednesday to get my
software updated. I’m going to leave the
car for the day because it’s almost time for my 25,000-mile checkup.
Me: I’ve got almost 60,000 on mine and it’s still
ticking beautifully.
Me: I wine…er…whine a lot, Friend from
Canada. lol.
Friend from Canada: fb knows.
I did get a couple of odd glances from other
people in the waiting room when I chuckled audibly. I imagine that Facebook knew that, too. But I sure hope that Reince Priebus isn’t
keeping track of me.
That would just be
too weird.
No, I haven't lost my marbles. As you can see, they are safely contained in a little glass bowl.

:) at least you're chuckling at the dealership as you're typing instead of carrying on a loud phone conversation for everyone to listen to!
You got a chuckle out go me :) lol
I just started reading that author this week! So far I like what I am reading. I would love to have a Prius.(I'll pass on a Reince-!!too nuts for me!!) lol!
Too funny! I thnk that book might give me the heebie geebies tho!
You gotta love spell check! Especially on a Mac. And of course typing with thumbs on a phone is always a challenge for me. I actually love your bowl of marbles and think they look very beautiful. :)
I enjoyed this--gave me my laugh out loud for the day. Auto correct can really be hilarious.
I drove a Prius rental car a few years ago when I hit a deer with my own car. I loved it--hated to give it back! :-)
Auto correct....like reading your mind, NOT!! And I agree with tex, much better then having one of those conversations most people have in waiting areas!! I can't read or think until they get off the phone!!
our pep boys auto just added wi fi...hope i don't need to use it.
Sounds like auto-correct was messing with you. :-)
I just get totally confused when I try to read Facebook.
whenever I'm feeling a bit down, I turn to auto-correct - always good for am LOL! but I'm guessing FB already knew that too.
At least you found some comedy in the situation. :)
Facebook was just acting strange yesterday...they must be fiddling with it again...
lol...fb can be a little scary like that! love the marbles!
