Misunderstood or miss-spoken ...this could be funny - If I may- I'll start with my funny...please join in

I have a new home in the country, while visiting with my husband and mother in law, we found a honest to goodness old fashion drive in dinner. You might remember or have seen this on TV.  You pull up to a parking spot with menues hanging up high in a neon lit row. The waitress takes your order at your car, and hangs your food from you window.    Malts, Shakes greasy hamburgers. 

We were loving it (last year).   We were really enjoying our self with cheese burgers strawberry, chocolate and butterscotch shakes.  I had the chocolate. 

Well.. it was late,  a beautiful warm summer night, after 10:00PM.  My mother-in-law 93, was in heaven.  What an old fashion enjoyable simple holsome time.

 When we were done, we had a pile of wrappers, paper cups with lids and spoons to help you eat those thick delicious shakes, and napkins, all stacked neatly, back on the window tray were the food was placed by the middle aged waitress.   We waited,  look around, and waited a little longer and she never came over to pick up her tray and by by her, tip.  hmm I was thinking, we must be doing something wrong.  I then say to my husband, I'll hope out of the car and let her know we are done.

I get out of the back seat and encounter the waitress as she is walking right in front of our car.  I say.."What do you do when you are done here?"  She look me right in face all upset and stammers..."I, I , I have a husband, and family that I am going home to.  I, I am married!----  My mouth fell open. I started laughing at her... lol, and I said "dear, I am asking you, how do you know when to come back to the car and pick up the tray?"  

She was so shocked by the mistake she rattled off very fast "you start your car and turn on the lights." She turned abruptly and grabbed the tray from our window and marched back into the little dinner.   My husband, my mother -in-law and I laughed all the way home.  At 93 it took a little explaining  to my husbands mom, but once she understood that the waitress thought we wanted her to come home with us, she belly laughed!

We still love that place.  What have you said that was misconstrued????

 

"I'll be right back, I'm going to run upstairs."
"Are you coming back down then?"
"Yeah, it's not like Alex is up there to play with me or anything."
"Damn it, Moly.  Quit talking to me about your sex life."

.. Considering I was going upstairs to get the Candyland board.

Long ago for Valentines at my job, I won a grand prize drawing - a weekend at an upscale Doubletree hotel.  I was a single mom not interested in dating but making the best of it, invited my best friend and her daughter who was my daughter's best friend.  The girls were young and neither had stayed at such a nice place plus theyd love the pool. 

When asked at lunch by coworkers was I excited about my hotel room winning, I replied that I was and that I'd be bringing my girlfriend.  They thought I was coming out to them as a lesbian.  Wait, what?  Oh ...

Not exactly mispoken but definitely misconstrued -

Years back, my ex wakes me up 3am.  He needed me to take him to get his car which had been towed.  UGH, but he'd helped me out so I agreed.  I put our 4 year old in the back car seat.  I put the passenger seat all the way down where I slept while he drove 45 minutes to find the tow place. 

He woke me in a horrible part of town behind a used car dealership.  He still hadnt found the tow place but I had to change places with him.  A cop had passed him going the opposite way on the empty street and then pulled down a side road.  My ex was paranoid the cop was turning around for us and turns out he had a suspended license. 

We switched and I, half-awake, pulled back on the main road with the cop coming up behind us.  Took my license and I was thinking whatever my ex did, Im getting a ticket for it. Even better - the cop returned to say that he saw me (you mean my ex?) driving alone (since I was out of sight sleeping in the reclined passenger seat) and pull behind the dealership and then pick up 'this guy' (my ex). 

So apparantly I wasnt only a prostitute, but so hard up that I had to go cruising to track down customers while toting my toddler in the back seat.  The cop was serious too.  Probably expected to pull over a guy with a prostitute in the passenger street, judging by the street we were on.  I think my 3am crawl out of bed appearance plus the argument me and the ex got in in front of the cop conveyed my innocence and he directed us to the tow place.  Good thing too - if not, wouldve got my butt kicked by my pimp.

Lmao sun123!  That second story is definitely a winner.

Well that was fun!  Misunderstood!  But we are all still laughing!  Hope everyone had a good weekend. 

Still
