My Two New Spouses

The internet is a wonderful wonderful thing. It allows people to send gifts to sick loved ones with a few strokes of the keyboard. However, sometimes mistakes can be made because of the lack of direct human interaction.

Recently, Youthlarge and I sent a plant and a balloon to my grandfather in Maryland. The correct information was typed into the website on our end. But when the gift arrived, there was a slight mistake.

The enclosed card read- "Love Daniel, Stu, and Jan"

Youthlarge always gets so upset when people take a look at her name and call her "Susan" but this is easily the funniest misspelling of her name. I'd love to have been in the head of the person at the florist who saw the correct spelling of her name on the information that we provided and decided to change it to Stu and Jan.

You don't have enough facial hair to be a fundamentalist Mormon.
