I’m sure it’s happened to all of us and/or we’ve done it to others. Someone mispronounces a word or the wrong word comes out of their mouth and it tickles our funny bone. Well, I cannot even count how many times something comes flying out of my mouth that entertains someone else. Sometimes we get the giggles thinking about it for years. This is one of those but at the time it annoyed me.

I have no recollection of the conversation except for this one piece of it. My boyfriend and I were in the car and I said, “… bed and breakfast …” or so I thought. He said what? Confused at what part he missed, I repeated myself. When I got to the “Bed and breakfast” part he laughed and said, “That, say it again”. I repeated myself but he kept laughing harder and I was becoming annoyed.

I wound up saying it over and over, slowly and all of a sudden I heard myself saying, “Br-ead and br-eakfast”. UGH I still roll my eyes and laugh about it, 20 years later.
