OT: one of the kinds of things I'm known for....

I've been fooling around on facebook.com lately, finding friends and sending  messages.

I was on late last night.  Someone had "superpoked" me and so I was reading the choices to "poke" them back.  You choose a friend you want to "poke" and then choose the action you want to take.  There are all kinds of silly suggestions: 

. share some chips with
. hug
. karate chop
. fling a thong at
. smile at..

WAIT A MINUTE BACK UP!!  fling a thong at??  what fun.  I would choose a girlfriend to fling a thong at!  (not being too sure of myself, and being overweight, (ha ha, I mean MORBIDLY OBESE--I wouldn't choose a guy).

So I did it, I checked a girlfriend's name, checked "fling a thong at" and pressed: SEND. 

A little message popped up on my screen:  you have superpoked TWO people. 

But.. but.. I only chose ONE name.  A girl.   I started to panic--who the hell else could I have flung a thong at??

Now keep in mind here.. I have not yet had WLS... I weigh almost 300 pounds... and ANY underwear of mine is almost as sizeable as a parachute... even a thong...

OH GOD NO!!  **** **** ****!!  I have flung a thong at a MAN.  Another flute technician--SUCH a sweetheart! but he and his wife have NINE CHILDREN.

can't believe it, CAN'T BELIEVE IT!!  Can it be undone?  CAn I  "erase" it?  Can I jump off a tall building?  Any chance gravity will fail and I can fall off the earth?

nooooooooo.  no chance.  I have FLUNG and now I must bear the shame and guilt.  The only thing I can do is write a NOTE to this poor guy (probably still struggling to get untangled from my voluminous thong)

But what can you possibly write that will undo such an action?  it's pitiful, it's too little--too late, but write I must.  And so I write him a note BEGGING forgiveness and ADAMANTLY stating it was a mistake!  just a big mistake!  and all the while the quote is going through my head:

"Methinks the lady doth protest too much."

  Nancy - can I leave you unattended??? Really??? You are too much!

somethin tells me you and I would have a lot of fun!  hope we meet soon,

ns

If you promise not to fling your under- drawers at me, we can totally get together!

oh, Kim, you're so strict !

ok, I'll keep my undies to myself..

ns

Not strict - I just have plenty of my own giant under- roos. I don't need yours too!!! hahaha

Nancy, I am just dying laughing!  That soooo sounds like something I would do!  As a matter of fact, I just had an insert foot into mouth moment with a very sweet married man with children this week and my apology came out so...pathetic.  lol  Oh gosh, why do we do these things to ourselves?  At least yours was genuinely on ACCIDENT! 

Now no flingin your super undies at me, sister! 

no, I"ll keep my underwear to myself from now on.  you've been a good sport today, Shauna...

ns

Nancy - you are a hoot !

But I don't know anything about Facebook and thought it was more like MySpace for kids...  Why would you fling undies to a girl anyway???  That sounds like something to do to a guy as a flirt.

well, I"m not gay--that girl and I like to laugh and I thought it would make her laugh. I'm too shy to fling my thong at a guy!
