I've been out of town all week with my youth group in North Carolina. It's been a lot of fun.

Part of being out of town tho, involves sending a bajillion SMS messages to my honey via my iPhone. This morning he used a clever term that I wanted to save for posterity on my blog: iFreudian Slip.

Anyone who has an iPhone has had it happen by now. You're typing and the error correction on the iPhone changes your words slightly here and there. It's usually quite handy. And it's usually right.

Sometimes, and always at the most inopportune moment, it respells a word for you as something else. I sent one friend a message where I mentioned TJ and it changed it to "FM". I sent another calling him Teej, and he was replaced with "teen". I sent TJ an early message that said "wakey wakey" and it changed it to "wakey waney."

I think it's funny. A little odd, but funny. It's all AT&T's plan to make us use extra SMS messages to explain what we meant to say in the first place.

"Can you hear me now?" for the SMS generation.

So I don't know if he made it up or if he read it somewhere, but FM, um, Teen, I mean TJ gave me a new word today. Thanks for that
