My own personal DYAC -- I narrowly escaped

In case you missed it, last Sunday night I Tweeted:

"Grayson made a delicious pork tenderloin for supper. Now we're relaxing before the kids' bedtimes. #sundayeveningsftw!"

It was my next Tweet that explained what COULD have been:

"My phone tried to autocorrect 'bedtimes' to 'beatings' in my last Tweet. THAT would have been one for the ages."

In other words, my phone tried to correct my original Tweet to:

Grayson made a delicious pork tenderloin for supper. Now we're relaxing before the kids' beatings. #sundayeveningsftw!

When I told Grayson about it, he died laughing ... he wished I would've gone ahead and let auto-correct do its thing!

I'm still convinced that 95 percent of the auto-corrections we see on websites like DamnYouAutoCorrect MUST be legitimate, because now that I have an iPhone, I've personally seen what not paying attention can do to you.

LOL! I saw that when you posted it on Twitter and I was like "WOW....that would be hysterical!"
