Srimp Anyone??
Yeah guys...I know I spelled it wrong! Thought you might like a little laugh, even if it is at my expense
Last night we went out to eat and I ordered shrimp. The waiter said, "You mean shrimp?" I said, "Yeah...that's what I said SHRIMP!" He then told me that I pronounced it wrong! So then I kindly said..."Really, well...can you pronounce N-O T-I-P?" You should have seen his face!When he left my hubby was about to roll. I asked him what?? He said, "Well baby, you do pronounce it Srimp!" So I said it again several times and I do pronounce it without the "h".
I'm so HICK!

Hi Toni! I hear that, about getting things wrong. I'm a complete Archie Bunker when it comes to fumbling around trying to remember the right word for something. I usually come up with words that are similar, but totally different. My classic example was when an auto mechanic told me my car needed a new axlerod. Well I could only remember it as requiring a new Rod spring. it has become a running joke with my kids! They always make fun of me. I just say, "yep... that was a GOOD one! I like that word even better than the real one!" hee hee
ASH-
I hate it when I see that people have read a post of mine, but don't reply. Makes me feel so stupid. But don't read anything into it. I figure when these women DO decide to respond, they REALLY respond with helpful, often lengthy answers. When I most need it too. So, what can you do.... By the way.... I don't care HOW you pronounced the word. I think it's obnoxious for the waiter (or anyone cept family maybe) to correct your speech! Who did he think he was? NO TIP.
