FIRST-I like spelling it FUNNY-NESS!
*The spellcheck on my email system tries to change the word "gonna" to "g-o-n-a-d" in all of my emails. (You figure out the word! I couldn't even spell it all out without feeling weird!)
*On the side of Monistat cream for a yeast infection it says, "Apply liberally" (That's not a problem). "Do not scratch." (That's a problem! If you were honest you would say how hard that is when you need the cream!!!!)
*I sent an email one time talking about eating squid. My spellcheck changed one word from tentacles to testicles.
*I tried to get my friend's attention one time by tapping his leg. He wouldn't acknowledge me. Maybe because he is paralyzed from the waste down!!!! I'm an idiot!! I forgot! He would probably see that as a compliment though! What a nice guy!
Welcome to A Goat's Tale! For those who do not know me, I must explain how the title was born. Here's the short version: my father-in-law has called me goat for over 20 years. We were at a petting zoo with all of the family and the goats would only come to me. He said it was because I was the "head goat"! It could have been worse, there were donkeys there too!

WE DON'T WANT YOUR COUCH!
OK, this is too funny!!! I called a certain nameless organization yesterday to pick up one of our 2 couches. (I will tell you it was NOT the veterans group). I spent yesterday cleaning the couch, a whole hour.
Now I will admit that the couch is about 20 years old but I'm telling you it is not that bad! It sits low, but if I didn't have any furniture, I would think it was great! So they came today to get the couch and I could tell that one of the two people who came was ill as a hornet about something. So he walks in my house and looks at the couch and says "sorry, we can't take it because it is too old. Have a nice day." The other guy looked like a deer caught in headlights!
What in the world!!!!!! Its funny to me b/c there are so many people out there without anything! And these are the people who are supposed to be helping that group of people? Now what do I do with it? How silly have we become that we would rather have nothing than a 20 year old couch? And I sit here and look around at all the stuff I have been blessed with and can't even give it away.
OH well, I guess God has other plans for my old couch. Poor couch! It can't help that its been spit up on, had drinks spilled on it, had food spilled on it, and numerous amounts of sweat and dirt from the cowboy who lives in my house. Its not the couch's fault at all. And sometimes people can change from a cream color to light brown after a few years in the tanning bed right?:)
At least its now all clean from all of my scrubbing. (Brown to light brown is really good right?:))
