Gal Pal Changes Definition?

“My most useful acting tip came from my pal John Wayne. Talk low, talk slow, and don’t say too much.”~Michael Caine

So its been a while. And yes, there’s a purpose. And no, I’m not about to divulge on that information.

But here’s what just wrecked my Thanksgiving weekend. And it has brought me back to this blog to grumble and vent.

I was on the phone earlier and in order to get this person to stop with their unnecessary clucking, I said “Thank you for calling but I have a gal pal waiting on me that I need to get back to. I’ll talk to you later. ”

Hell broke loose. All of it.

I had family members and people who know my family calling me left and right and up and down asking me about this new “girlfriend” that I had.

Umm… what??? What the hell are you talking about??????

I can’t believe these people. Incredible!!!

I said GAL PAL… not GIRLFRIEND.

Look at this:

See? NOT girlfriend. If I had a girlfriend, I would be the first person to be shouting at the top of my lungs- believe you, me.

Morons. Keep your busy noses to yourselves!

 

 

P.S.A. #1

While you were glued to the television set for every ounce of reports of the pre-game shows, sat through the abortion version of the National Anthem, screamed and yelled at every play of the entire game of Super Bowl XLV, stuffing your face with snacks and getting drunk… remember this:

I was on the Internet, talking to your girlfriend and/or wife.

Thank you.
