MULTIPLE CHOICE

Okay there is an explanation for all that stuff in my purse
 
Yep, I'm back.  We have had a multitude of experiences over the past week.  Mostly dealing with medical appointments and visitors to our home.  With so many stories to relate I don't know where to begin.  So, here's a funny thing that happened to me one day.

I was headed for town to pick up some tuna at the dollar store. My cell phone beeped and knew I had missed a call.  There was a voicemail from my brother telling me they were on their way to visit.  I quickly acknowledged their message and continued my journey to town.

Shortly after returning home I was looking for my cell phone.  Rummaging through my purse I could not find it.  Remembering the last time I used it I feared I had put it in my lap and lost it when I got out of the van.  Perhaps it had dropped inside the van so I checked.  It was not there.

Before driving back to town, I decided to call the phone and see if maybe it had been overlooked in my purse.  Sure enough, my purse started ringing.  I dumped everything out of my purse onto the floor and called again.  My purse was still ringing.  I squeezed my purse to feel for the phone, pulled the lining wrong side out and looked for a tear where the phone may have slipped under the lining.   No phone.  I looked at the pile of things I dumped out of my purse and decided maybe it was the pile of stuff that was ringing.  I carried my purse out of the room and called the phone again.  My purse was still ringing.

Suddenly I remembered that I had stuck the cell phone in my BRA.  I was ringing:)

  2. sonny -- I have done this before when wearing something without pockets and don't know why I can't remember. Needless to say our family and friends have gotten quite a kick out of the story.

    Thanks for missing me.

  6. Bonnie -- Someone told me that there is a TV ad for a bra that has a pocket sewn into it:) Plus, in 1967 a "seasoned" woman used to reach in her bra and start reeling out a long silk stocking that had her money for deposit rolled up in it. The tellers could barely keep a straight face.

  10. Senior moment! That would be my excuse! You did a good job of retracing your steps- n telling the amusing story.

    I often load up alot of things to make one trip up the stairs, just to find I forgot something like the travel mug n have to go back down anyways!

  18. Riot Kitty -- I didn't want to be be fumbling around for my purse and didn't have a pocket on my shirt.

    Holland -- It is great to hear you laugh.

    Snaggle Tooth - So many "senior moments" these days. I know about leaving the travel mugs in the van. We do that all the time.

    cube -- Oh yes, that is the funniest bit ever done. We listen to laugh-out-loud radio and they play Lily Tomlin's stuff all the time. It still cracks me up.

    Tabor -- Do I understand the correct meaning of "bills" and/or "bells"? If so, mine aren't large or there would not have been room for the phone.

    Changes in the wind -- Good advice...and funny advice. Read on to see what my friend Nancy did with that suggestion.

    ashok -- Yes, I have been told that! Glad you laughed.

    Cliff -- Zing! Oh I laughed so hard.

    Nancy -- Cliff got me started with the belly laughs and you moved in for the kill.

    Cliff -- Amen!

  19. Hilarious. I keep mine in a pocket, and if I have no pocket, it goes in my bra. I've had some funny looks in stores when I pull it out. Love what Cliff said.

  20. kenju - Judy, I pulled my credit card out of my bra once and the clerk said that she women do that all the time, so we aren't the only ones. As I mentioned to Bonnie, there is bra made for that reason with built in pocket.

  21. "Fools Rush In" has been included in the A Sunday Drive for this week. I hope this helps to point even more new visitors in your direction.

  22. Oh man, that's too funny.

    I've never stored anything in my bra. I don't have a significant bust, so if anything I think I'd only be able to store a few coins in there. ;-)

  23. I use my iPhone as an iPod to listen to books and podcasts, so it is frequently in my bra!

  26. Jerry E. Beuterbaugh -- Glad you enjoyed my post and thank you so much for the shout out.

    Sparkling Red -- I have never carried coins in my bra. Folding money yes, coins, no. I'm afraid I would jingle instead of ring:)

    Susan Adcox -- Oh good. I carry my walkman in my bra sometimes to listen to my audio books. Glad to know I'm not the only one.

    Snaggle Tooth -- Yes, sometimes I think Cliff and Nancy ought to perform comedy acts on stage:)

    Pat -- I guess that's about all we can ask...hope for all of us:}
