My personal 'Letterman' Ten

Comment from Chrisfiore
Hello SE, After nearly 10 days I am officially back on line. During that time FS decided to reduce my membership back down to standard even though I mailed them a check on the 18th of February. When I again inquired as to why, they said, "Oh! It has been a while since we checked, sorry." Anyhoo, here I am and I agree with your Letterman 10. (I have also slept in the wet spot, eeew!) ;) Chrisfiore

I loved three, eight and ten. You did do something today, you brought some laughter into the lives of fanstory members. Have a good evening.

Well thanks Miss alice/Dallas. I was writing on a free post with nothing to gain/lose except to write....you are my unexpected friend through the process, but I'm stronger for the support and oddly understanding I can make it modestly in the commercial world. This is not a vanity site for me, bit rather an adolescent growth spurt.

I like that, adolescent growth spurt.

I cannot tell you enough, how much I enjoyed this. Thanks so much for making me laugh. I was in a grumpy mood most of the day and this was the perfect remedy. Great work with this one.

That's exactly what it was meant to do.
Comment from Cumbrianlass
Love it. Love it. Love it. This too, should be submitted to a woman's magazine. It's great fun, funny, and not without some pretty cool wisdom!
My favourite? Hmm... think it's air duct one. Methinks I'll be using that one for sure!
Thanks, Ingrid. I enjoyed this!

Written for fun....
Comment from Espresso momma
Great piece, especially the last one. We cause most of what goes wrong in our lives and just don't like to admit it. Good job. Thanks for sharing.

Was a write that spared me from chores.
Comment from Judian James
I started laughing with the "wet spot" remembrance from Cosmo. What a clever, clever idea! Anyway, this was good.
Most were really very agreeable and in dealing with difficult people, you're actually bringing them around to be better people themselves which benefits you as well. #3 and #8, were laugh out loud funny. Good one, Ingrid. I've enjoyed reading you today.

It was my Sunday I ain't doin' nothin' write
Comment from Nomar Chagrin
Loved it, Echo. Funnier than a lot of the real Top Ten's on TV. Creative ideas too like the birth day, facing the elevator backwards, skipping down the hall, the bank machine, etc. Wish I'd thought of these.
Ends on a serious note I see. That was a nice touch. Made this into something with a valuable message rather than just humor.
Keep up the good work, Echo. This was hilarious.

I was going to pass on the elevator deity to you as a suggestion, but then let it pass. Thanks for reading, ingrid

Oh, I forgot to mention. I'm pretty sure "over hear" should be one word in this case. (Item # 6)
Comment from sweetwoodjax

Comment from barkingdog
How fun this post is! Many I hate to say, I've already done but the yelling 'jackpot' and praying to elevator deity/wall are now stored away for future use. LOL
I went naked to greet the weekly bible solicitors who I always politely told leave me alone. The did.(This body would scare the devil away ... so what are they worried about? LOL)
I've told phone call solicitors that I'm a real estate agent in the house of the deceased. I have others but this one seems to work.
Fine piece of advice in point ten. Laugh and let it go. Why take yourself seriously, nobody else does.

Thanks so much for sharing and for the bouquest of glitter. I told a telephone soliciter that the person was deceased and thought they were calling for the funeral arrangements. It turned out to be my bank and then I had to go in person and prove I was alive....no smal thing...lol
-
Whoops! That one almost back fired big time. I wonder how many soliciters get 'she's dead' response. LOL I hate the phone.:)
