A Most Embarrassing Morning
The scene: Monday morning, sipping the all-important first cup of coffee, reading blogs, and catching up with goodreads
The idea: Isn't "Blogger X" already my friend on goodreads?
The action: I'll send a friend request
The reality: friend request mistakenly sent to every twitter follower with a goodreads account
The effect: instant mortification
The benefit: lots of new goodreads friends (though I thought I was already friends with most of you)
Note to twitter followers: My feelings won't be hurt if you ignore the request.
Note to self: Always consume at least one cup of coffee before logging into any social media
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
ReplyDeleteThey make it soooo easy to do! I hadn't realized that goodreads was posting everything I did to my FB wall until I told it not to! I'm sure everyone enjoyed getting the invitation!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy all your new friends!
ReplyDeleteNow that is one busy morning. Good luck with all your new friends!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like something I would do! lol
ReplyDeleteYou make me laugh!
ReplyDeleteHahaha! That's Monday morning for you!
ReplyDeleteFunny! I guess that would give a bigger jolt than caffeine!
ReplyDeletePat - It sure did!!
DeleteAnd I didn't get an invite. LOL.
ReplyDeleteTi - Probably because we are already friends ;-)
DeleteJoAnn,
ReplyDeleteIn my unbiased opinion, every reader would benefit from reading and knowing about your blog. I know how you feel, but personally I hope you pick up some sympatico readers and bloggers.
Judith
Thank you, Judith. You are so kind.
DeleteOops, well hopefully you will gain a lot of new friends!
ReplyDeleteI didn't get a request, but found you and sent you a request. ;~)
ReplyDeleteLilea - And I just accepted it.... what a busy day for goodreads ;-)
Deletetoo funny!!! Yes, two cups of coffee is a must before clicking!! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm on goodreads (passively) but I haven't seen a request - just so you know I'm not ignoring you :)
ReplyDeleteLisa - If you decide to become active, you know I'll be your friend ;-)
DeleteLOL too funny. You meant well.
ReplyDeleteoh gosh this sounds like something i would have done! too funny!
ReplyDeleteLOL, whoooops! I did the same, only to all of my FB friends. I felt like a dork, lol. ;)
ReplyDeleteJennifer - Well now I don't feel quite so bad ;-)
DeleteSounds like something I could do after 2 glasses of wine! ;) Could be worse. Sometimes the email "reply all" button is just a little too close to "reply." ;)
ReplyDeleteLes - You know, this could have happened just as easily at the other end of the day (with a little wine), too! That 'reply all' button is dangerous, too ;-)
DeleteToo funny! I feel as if I should find you on all your social media sights now. LOL
ReplyDeleteDebbie - LOL! You found me... just accepted your request :-)

ReplyDeleteWhoa! Maybe we should say no to social media before drinking at least TWO cups of coffee,,just to be safe. ;-)
ReplyDeleteVasilly - That might be a very good idea for me ;-)
DeleteThat is too funny! And maybe the exact reason I veg for a half hour before I even try to start my day.
ReplyDeleteI did this with LinkedIn one time. I think that's even worse because it's a professional network. I even had someone e-mail me a bit ago and ask how we knew each other. I said, "We don't. I accidentally added the universe to my contacts one day. Apologies!"
ReplyDeleteAndi - Well that just put things in perspective! At least goodreads is social... thanks.
DeleteThat would probably happen to me as well! I don't think you need to feel mortified about that at all though :)
ReplyDeleteIris - I'm only mildly embarrassed now ;-)
DeleteHeehee. Happens to the best of us :)
