LMAO, now I remember why I don’t own any kind of cell phone. I have enough problems just getting normal typing done. Texting would be a new adventure and a chance to toss cell phones.

Hi, Jenny! So glad I got a chance to stop by (I know, I know, I’ve been REALLY MIA lately…will catch up once the kiddos are back at school next week) – that autocorrect is a riot! Also, gotta check out the condom link…didn’t think that was something Bill Gates was in desperate need of…unless he’s hooking up with Miley…
