It was a perfectly delightful Valentine Saturday. She greeted her beau with wrapped Whoppers and his favorite Necco candy hearts, with a written love note. He had decorated the piano with all that is Valentine related while she slept…
She made him a living Valentine installation, that he would find on the stone path…
He nodded in delightment as he came upon it…
They danced, and listened to all sorts of music, all was disgustingly sappy. Perfect for this day… And as the songs changed, they were more into the music than eachother, and slowly roamed into their own directions… (Mister Lovee to her and many others, was the missing member to the Rolling Stones, he looked like a long lost brother)
Anyhow, as she went her own way, she decided to get Faun Boy repackaged and ready to head out for a second voyage to France…
Yep, he was in perfect condition. All was still in the package, and he was still wrapped up safe and sound…
As she emptied out the parcel, she noticed there was something still inside. EEK!
Oh no she thought. What could it be? It looked dark…
It looked kind of like a wig, she thought…
Fear and anxiety consumed her belly…
She had just had this intense conversation with her brother. About how everything happens for a reason. How all is magical and meant to be… She was firm on that outlook…
And yet, here she was, at one of those pivotal moments in life. Where France sends her an unexpected gift…
Was it meant to be?
You know, she was a very modest girl. She never brought anything to her blog that would be terribly inappropriate.
But just in case… This should be considered fair notice.
Anyhow, she opened her parcel.
Slowly…
It was from the Brassiere Gods of France…
The only problem was. She wasn't the Cinderella to this Brassiere…
She made a face of wonderment. There was just no way she could do it justice.
If everything is meant to be… (For a split second she thought about that wish she wrote on a little piece of paper when she was 12 and sent into the atmosphere. You know, when you wish you looked more like Marilyn Monroe, and less like a 12 year old. Perhaps her wish was delayed, and had just arrived to the Wish Maker??)
She thought, she must find the rightful owner of this lovely specimen. They must be wondering where it went? Or did France really intend to send it her way?
She searched the package for any sign of a true owner… But all there was, was a label…
Now what, she asked herself?
I mean, where really had Faun Boy picked this lovely specimen up at?
He went all the way to France, and all he brought back was…
There were a few options.
- Keep it and hope for a miracle.
- Gift it to someone who could use it, afterall, it was quite nice.
- Send it back to France with Faun Boy?
- Keep it as a Souvenir of France…
- Go on a mission to find the rightful owner?
What do you think?
One thing's for sure. This was the first time she had ever received Valentine Lingerie, and she would never forget it 😉 (too bad it wasn't the perfect fit, but then again, she could resort to 12 year old tactics that involved kleenex)
The things that happened to her in this lifetime, I tell ya…
February 14th, 2009, I Love your sense of humor!
Proof that, you can live in the middle of Nowhere Arizona, ask for nothing, and still receive the wonderments of the world, in your very own mailbox 😉 😉
🖤 xoxo, V
ps: Details on the package: I sent Faun Boy to France in Novemberish, but he never arrived to his new owner. He had been lost ever since. Out of 1,000+ parcels shipped all over the world, he was the first one that has never arrived at his new home… But a couple of days ago, he was sitting in my mailbox, opened but sealed in a plastic bag from France. With the extra mystery souvenir in tow 😉
amazing!!!
happy valentine’s day to you indeed!
xoxo

Oh my! What an interesting french souvenir indeed…my do you have stories to tell. I would have been quite confused myself! Good luck on Faun Boy’s journey back to France..hopefully he makes it..without extra ‘surprises’! LOL, that’s hilarious.
~KRiSTa
that is the most tremendous story ever!!! how ver very curious…. good luck with your search.
%*_*%
That is fantastic!!! I love it! Someone has a sense of humor.
Happy day,
Jenni
OMFG, I’m laughing hysterically.
(Snorting helplessly….)
ROTFL! I love it!
That is halarious! But it was meant for you because only you could tell the story in such a way. Only you would suspect the Wish Maker.
I sent a box to Canada mid November and it came back to me late January.
HAHAHAHA I gotta tell you Vanessa, only you could have something like that happen to you. Soooo funny. To bad it was the wrong size after all it was very nice!
Kris
Hihi, a little package hitch-hiker.. 😀
France sent you a huge bra?
That’s it, I’m breaking up with France. Or I’ll be in a corner sulking for a while. Une brassiere grande comme un message secret? C’est bizarre!
Oui, oui, mademoiselle Vanessa – me visite dans la Suede (je n’ai pas besoin du brassiere francaise grande), nous mangeons beaucoup du semla!
Oo la la faun boy!
Methinks he indulged in a bit of risque behavior a la Moulin Rouge during his trip to gay Paris!! I bet he re-routed himself!!!(He looked so innocent, too)
And thank you again for the fun(ky) free valentines-do you know how silly i am? I didnt “get it” until i gave it away!
Cowboy says “FUNGI”= “FUN GUY” !! duh!
Anyhoo, your Valentine’s Day looks like it was lovely (and I still think the ring Lovee gave you rocks it to Sunday)
xoxoxox Rhonda (Divaqueen roo) 🙂
wow, 44dd!
big!
Happy Valentine’s Day!
Fun post, very funny!
Vanessa,
That is funny you received that in the mail. Poor gal who is running around needing that beautiful piece of clothing. I think I would try to find the rightful owner, it looks expensive especially at that size. Or you could do something artsy with it! he he
Happy Valentines Day! Hugs, Bobbi Jo
Haha – you have the BEST stuff happen to you! I feel sorry for the poor gal who that belongs to. I know from experience that if you move too quickly without your bra you can put your own eye out if you are that big!
OK, I’m gonna be giggling all night now, just thinking about you opening that up. 🙂
xoxo,
Kate
you have got to be kidding me. a playtex bra??? you have the weirdest wonderful luck. Stories are just drawn to you. 🙂
Happy Valentine’s Day!
Looks like ya enjoyed ya day.A 44DD WOW! I say have Mr.Lovee put it on,and stuff it. What a sight that would be! I mean Mr. Lovee should have some kind of retribution to pay since he “Discovered” His Whoppers early.
Can ya imagine how he would look? I think that would be an extra treat for ya.
Happy Valentine’s Day.
Hugs~
Oh! I forgot to mention ya could make it into a purse! Honestly, There are Bra purses out there. That is if ya can’t fine the owner of the bra. Ya could call the Playtex Company and ask if anyone reported their order as missing. That might help ya some.
Hugs~
Oh my cats, if that isn’t the funniest thing ever! I think that lovely French hootie holder deserves a place in your girly craft room to give you inspiration – LOL! Surely you can find an appropriate place to hang it!
Oh, you really gave me a chuckle! …. this is what dreams are made of! ha!
I think I would keep it and create really interesting ear muffs for the colder weather.
A most Happy Valentine’s Day to you!!
lmao!!! what a great suprise….I’m seeing it hanging off a branch with the cups filled with moss….it’ll make a gorgeous double barrell bird nest 🙂
oh-that is just too funny. I feel embarrassed to say that I could just about do that bra justice…;) too funny for words!
Oh, my goodness! This could only happent to you! The stories faun boy must have to tell if only he could tell us about it! So funny, at least this will really make this valentine’s day memorable!
That is quite hilarious V 🙂 Good thing you don’t fit in it…because it may take a toll on your back, hehe. Just back in from a fun filled day of birthday parties for my 4 year old and celebrating our anniversary too (had to get in a margarita 😉 Tomorrow, off to gamble my day away…woo hoo! But had to check in on ya and get my Fanciful fix! HAPPY V-DAY TO YOU…V!
Hi Vanessa,
I’d say your sweet little Faun Boy has been keeping secrets from you and Where do you suppose he was all those months? It appears he was out having a frolicking time with his misses. Looks like she gave him the slip or the bra…hee hee!
Happy Valentines Day!
Happy Valentine’s Day, Miss V. Okay, Faun Boy missed the mark. I say keep it and put as a souvenir with other beautiful things that look Parisian.
44DD! that is hysterical…what a Valentine’s Day surprise!
Well, you have a wonderful one, the heart of flowers on the walk is just about the best!
Happy HAPPY!
x..x
Oooh La La! Too bad Faun Boy doesn’t kiss and tell! lol!
Tecu’Mish
i knew i lost that somewhere…perhaps france is where i decided to forego wearing bras…oh la la the freedom…don’t forget about me please…happy valentines day…hugs, rebecca
Your quite funny. made me laugh 😛
HAA!!!
Who needs 44DD when they have 100% fabulous?!
Oh Miss Vanessa, I’m laughing so hard I feel off my toadstool! Ooops Thanks for sharing this…I needed a good giggle this morning! I sure hope your adventures in your search will be posted here…it will be interesting to find out what happened. I’m still laughing my head off! LOL Happy Belated Valentine’s Day and have a great SUNDAY! You certainly made mine…pssst… everyone is looking at me as I’m typing this because I have tears streaming down my face from giggling…
Ciao Bella
That’s so funny! I wonder where it came from. I once found a yo-yo in my anorak pocket when I was about 6 and I never found out where it came from. I suspect now that my Gran put it there as a surprise. THe same can’t be said for your bra!
Joyeuse Saint Valentin !!^^
That is hilarious! I wonder why someone at the post office thought that bra went with Faun Boy’s package? LOL!
Oh my, how ODD. Perhaps Faun Boy had some fun at le Moulin Rouge? (no, never, I am sure he would never do that!) That is quite the funniest thing I have ever heard. What a mystery. Well, at least it provided ample amusement on Valentines day!
I always do wonder what happens to those mystery parcels that disappear into nowhere (well, now we know where one of them ended up!), never to be seen again. One time when I lived in Scotland, my mother sent me a Valentines parcel from the US. It never, ever came. To this day, I have a rather hilarious image of a chubby little bald Scottish postal worker stuffing conversation hearts and Reese’s into his mouth in the back of the mail room. (not to mention sneaking a little white teddy bear into his coat pocket…)
That’s brassiere…I mean Bizarre! :0
Elizabeth
How funny! How did all of that happen? So what is the sequel to this amazing story??? Will faun boy make it to his rightful owner??? Whose bra is that, really? Will someone have a certain surgery on a certain area to fit a certain bra of a certain size?? Dunnnnn dunn dunnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn!!!
What will happen next…
Happy Valentines Day Vanessa
Only you would receive a mystery bra in the mail
I am so laughing and wondering as you…”whom is missing this beautiful piece “????””””””
I hope we find out someday!
What a peculiar trade – the famous and missing Faun Boy for a brasserie – and a generous one at that? Most unusual. But then, you are unusual, so…. But where is Faun Boy? Perhaps, if there is some sort of return address you could write and ask about him. I once received a smallish box out of nowhere, crammed full of very large women’s panties, all lace and thong-like. Took me ages to stop laughing. Mysterious things happen sometimes. Happy
Happy Valentine day!! That is funny. I order a plain pizza and receive a half pepperoni pizza. I said thank you cupid for the surprise.
that is absolutely fabulously hilarious. hwat a magically funny thing… i have no advice for you though. what to do with it i mean….
i’m late, i know, but i still wanted to wish you a happy valentine’s :). and it seemed great! i was very much grounded for stealing some chocolate once. and yes, i actually did steal it. still ashamed about it.
anyway, it always makes me so happy to pass by your blog!
This could only happen to YOU! heeheehee! None of us could tell the story so well!
Because I was inspired by your candy bracelets yesterday I gave them out for valentines and they were a big hit.
The world is strange and beautiful.
Love Renee
How hilarious! I wonder what the Universe is telling you.
*giggles* and Happy Valentines Day to you too!
( I passed out candy bracelets to my students 🙂 I adore them!
It looks like a wonderful Valentine’s day filled with surprises : )
Kathy
Hahaha, what have Faun boy been doing in France?
44DD? That would be an european size 100F…. oh my!
Great storytelling! Have a great Monday!
KJ
Good gravy…you’d have to be one gifted gal to fill all of that out. I don’t think it’s too much of a surprise that Faun Boy would pick up such a souvenir, I mean he must be a distant cousin of Pan, no?
What????? Someone at the French PO must be having some fun, sipping a little too wine during the work day maybe? Hoping to share some boobie blessings throughout the world? This would only happen to you hee hee!
Tee hee!!! That is enough valentine lingerie to last a lifetime! Even Mommy, who is 86, had a good giggle over that one. She also loves your little creatures and art that adorn my home. **blows kisses** Deborah
oh my, i just can’t stop giggling. I do think that the post-goblins are playing a very cheeky trick on Ms. Fanciful! 🙂
Fabulous post! I loved the special encasement for the “magnolia’s”! Ohhhhh, I use to toilet paper in mine *giggle*
Happy Monday!
LuLu~*xoxo
Now that is Hilarious!
Just too too Funny!
Somewhere, somebody is feeling a tad chilly!!
Sandra Evertson
P.S.
Happy Belated Valentines Day!
This is too funny… Faun Boy has obviously been having too much fun in France. LOL
Seriously… I wonder if someone in customs opened your package to inspect it or somehow during transit it got opened and then the contents got intermiggled with another package that had the bra in it.
But it does make for a certainly intersting story… LOL
This is so amusing!
Hope you had a hearty hearts’ day 🙂
I do believe your Faun Boy has secrets he will lock the key to and throw away.
Oh my at the things he must know and have seen!
Maybe, someone wants you to have a kid and breastfeed him or she but does’nt know that this object won’t be convenient.
Well, we in France are never surprised by what La Poste does or doesn’t do! They can be a bit, shall we say, eccentric, in their delivery? What an intriguing souvenir! 🙂 xoxox
I am rolling on the floor! How funny is that story! How funny that your 12 year old wish was granted with accessories. You know every girl does love accessories! Fawn boy is just like the travelocity gnome…you never know where he’ll show up or the stories he could tell! I bet what happened in France Stays in France!
`giggle`
Terisa
OMG OMG…that is too funny! A gift from the boob fairy?! Too bad it isn’t my size!
It looks like it has been a wonderful valentine’s day full of surprises and wishes .You made me laugh a lot …
I’m laughing my hiney off right now!!! That is so funny!
I think you should opt for #1 – miracles happen all the time…=)
Or, you could give it to your Dream Keeper…=)
teehee…..
***cough, choke, laugh***
*honk*
That is a very curious and hilarious story. Won’t you always wonder? Hm…that mystery would drive me crazy!
