Romance Writers’ Weekly-You Googled What????

 

I had to laugh out loud when I read the prompt for our blog post this week. 

There’s a long-standing joke about authors’ computer histories, because we have to research the strangest stuff sometimes. 

I hope you hopped over here from Bette Bolte’s!

Here’s this week’s prompt: 

What did you Google?

The internet is an invaluable research tool for writers, but sometimes we google some searches that would raise more than a few eyebrows if seen out of context. So this week I challenge the Romance Weekly writers to ‘fess up on what the strangest thing they googled was, and then give them a chance to explain why they were grubbing around in that particular search string.

Welll…

A couple of days ago, I was putzing around Google, not for my current work-in-progress, but for a social media post, specifically something for my street team. 

Anyone who knows me is aware of my quirky humor and obsession preference for the color blue. I’ve searched out all sorts of interesting or odd things shaded blue, most recently pumpkins and corn. My favorite breakfast  food is waffles (think strawberries and whipped topping)  and I wondered if there were any really neat pictures of blue waffles on Google. 

OMG! OMG! OH MY FREAKIN’ EYES!

Do not, do not,  DO NOT look it up blue waffles. I beg you, please take my word for it. You DO NOT want to see that. Ever. 

Some things cannot be unseen. 

Me in my naive innocence could never have imagined what popped up on my screen. I was looking for an azure or indigo tinted breakfast confection with a pattern of indentations. Instead, a myriad of female huhas popped up. 

*Shudder!*

I was so traumatized, I wouldn’t even try to find an image for this post. 

Supposedly, blue waffles is a condition caused by STD, though some sources claim it is purely mythological. 

I don’t care. 

I will never be able to eat a waffle again. 

Okay, let’s head over to Brenda Margriet’s  and hope her Google searches are a little less disgusting than mine. 

 

By-the-way, I have two giveaways happening right now.  Go to my home page HERE.
