Speaker 1 (00:00):
All Rightie is Mojo in the morning. Hey, Shannon has
a big weekend plan. She's going away to celebrate a friend.
But you're surprising this person. This person does not know
that you're coming to visit them.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
Correct, total surprise. I haven't seen this person, and I
want to keep the detailed under reps because I don't
want this person to know that this is happening. But
coming into town to see this person, and I cannot
wait to see her face when she sees me. However,
(00:33):
I'm a little nervous. And the reason is there's a
piece of me that knows she is a very busy
working mom, and I know her calendar is constantly packed,
and I'm so terrified that her husband did not plan
the weekend adequately and she's going to have like a
million things to do and just be so overwhelmed and
stressed that I'm there and I'm going to be more
(00:56):
of a burden than I am. A really fun surprise.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
So she has no idea that you are going to
be coming into town. Correct, And I'm saying the weekend
and it's what is it a surprise for like some
kind of is it something going on?
Speaker 2 (01:09):
It's a birthday.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
It's a birthday, so it's a big birthday, yep. And
the surprise is that you're going to be there and
you're going to be joining. Are there other people coming
to or no?
Speaker 2 (01:17):
Yes, yeah, I have a friend going with me, and
then I believe there are a lot of people, you know,
a lot of her friends for around where she lives that.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Are going to be there. But this is interesting because
have you ever had a surprise party thrown for you.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
I've had surprises, but not an actual party at a party.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
I've had a surprise party thrown for me. And I'm
going to tell you something. You don't know how to
react on a surprise party, but you also don't know
how to take it when you have other ideas in
mind of what you're.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Doing for the weekend and this is not just a party.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
Like I said, I'm there for the weekend.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
No.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Yeah, So I just know myself and I would be
so stressed out if all of a sudden I had
people to entertain.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
For the weekend when that was not a part of
my original plan. Are there any listeners that have ever
had a surprise party or a surprise thrown for them
or planned for them? And you were not happy about it,
Like you were actually upset about the surprise happening. Maybe
you weren't prepared for it. Maybe maybe you were not
dressed the appropriate way. Maybe he didn't take a shower
(02:22):
and wash your hair, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (02:23):
I have a good story about one of our friends, Pops. Yeah,
so he had My grandma was throwing him a surprise party.
I think it was for his fortieth. But he didn't
think that anything was happening for him. So he was
so depressed that he would not come home that day.
He went to the bar. He got plastered at the
bar drunk, and my Grandma's like, Jerry, where are you?
Speaker 5 (02:45):
Like?
Speaker 4 (02:45):
What is going on? She has a million people at
the house right now. The man would not come because
he thought that no one was throwing him a party.
He ends up getting there and he can't even function.
Speaker 6 (02:55):
Oh God.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
That is, actually, by the way, really funny, because there
are times where you will like I've I've thrown or
flown in Chelsea's friends for a surprise party. One time
it went great, it was awesome.
Speaker 5 (03:09):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
It was when she was turning thirty and I flew
like five or six people in her mom and all
this stuff. The other time was for her fiftieth birthday.
I flew some people in and she was not really happy.
She was not exactly wanting that, Like that was not
what she was hoping.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
For it for that right, Like the initial surprise is
going to be great, and then it's going to be
like I was supposed to do this and this and
this and this and this and all these things.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
A four four Mojo Live A four four six sixty
five six five four eight Sean, what's going on?
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Hey, how are you, Mojo?
Speaker 1 (03:41):
I'm great, Sean. We're talking about not happy about the surprise.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
Well, you know what, I wasn't happy about the but
I didn't miss out on anything either. But what happened
was my mom threw me a surprise party.
Speaker 5 (03:54):
Everybody had a good time.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
I was out drunk myself.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
When I got home, they come stumbling out some you
had a really good party.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Where were you? Wait, you weren't at the party.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
I was not at the party, but everybody had a
dog on good time at my party. Wait, because somebody
forgot to tell somebody, how did you he was a
surprise party for you?
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Did they still have the party even without you?
Speaker 3 (04:20):
You know, alcohol is fool drinking.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
That's amazing alcohol. Forget this party, that's crazy party without me.
Oh my god, that's uh, that's awesome. By the way,
that's funny if you throw the surprise, like what happens Shannon,
You fly to go visit and see your friend and
have this party, and your friends out with their friends
(04:43):
not realizing what's going on in.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
The The potential of that happening is big.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
Is her husband like a pretty plan He is a
terrible planner.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Oh really, he is the worst planner.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
So maybe she what if she leaves town, what if
she goes out of town?
Speaker 2 (04:57):
But I don't think he knows their schedule or calendar
very at all.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
So this is just really nicy. What's up, Amy, How
you doing good?
Speaker 3 (05:04):
How are you guys today?
Speaker 1 (05:05):
Good? What's happening?
Speaker 3 (05:08):
Well? My story was twenty years ago. My husband and
I just actually celebrated our twentieth anniversary. But when we
were dating, oh my gosh, I knew something was going on.
I could tell he was acting funny. I thought he
was going to propose. And we arrived at a place
where my sister in law worked, and I thought we
were just having a dinner and he was going to
surprise me. And I walked in and my whole family
(05:31):
was there, my friends, everybody yelled surprise, and I ran
to the bathroom and cried for like a half an hour.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
What was the emotion about in that time? Explain that
to me.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
I just kind of like it just seemed like we
were building up to that point. Yeah, and it was like,
I just something stuck in my head he was gonna
propose the way he was acting, it was it was
just I knew something was happening. And then when I
walked in and I realized it was just a surprise party,
I was just devastated. But it did turn out that
(06:03):
that night he asked my dad if he could ask
me to marry him.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Oh that's sweet. So eventually it did happen.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
But turned out good.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
But how long did you have to wait? How long
after the surprise party did you have to wait for
him to actually do the proposal?
Speaker 3 (06:16):
Not long? But it was actually kind of a funny story.
When he proposed, he must have gotten so nervous that
he just said, well, I want to get married.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
A surprise. He's a bad He's a bad proposer. What's out, Angela,
how you doing good? How are you guys? We're good?
What's going on?
Speaker 6 (06:40):
So we my family owns a restaurant and for my
mom's fiftieth birthday party, we had we had some of
our friends kind of in on the on this plan,
and we had her cater her own surprise party. And
so we walked in. It was my friend of mine
worked at a UA w hall and we walked in.
(07:01):
Her face was plastered all over the walls and everyone
was in there, and she looked at she was absolutely stunned.
She looked at my den. She goes, you will be
paying for this whole party. She goes, you will be
paying me.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Oh my gosh, that's fine. So but that's it's wild
to think though, how family kind of reacts to to that,
Like the person that you cannot plan a surprise party
for a person that doesn't like to be surprised. Yeah,
and you also need to know exactly what their party
is the plan for, you know what I mean? Like,
what is you're gonna do?
Speaker 6 (07:35):
She definitely, she loved it. We had a great time,
and it was she was just stunned that the whole
thing that we pulled, the whole thing off because she's
not easy to surprise.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Yeah, guys are tough at planning surprise parties for girls.
Like women can pull it off like they have the
ideas down. Guys like clunky. You're a little clunky, Yes,
unless you have their friends helping you with this, which
and I don't know if your friend had the female. Now,
what's up, Jody, Good morning, guys, morning, what's going on?
Speaker 5 (08:06):
It was years ago my best friend, her mother in
law at the time now ex to mother in law,
threw her a surprise birthday for her thirtieth on the
day of Jobby Nooner, which she was out on the
water for that oh no, and did not make it
back until almost one o'clock in the morning to the party.
(08:27):
She claimed that she was a boat was stranded, you know,
stuck out there. But she yes, she walked in about
one in the morning with about forty to fifty necklaces
around her planning right there. Yes, but we ended up
still partying and having fun for the arrest of what
we could.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Yeah, that's like Pops's situation too. You get a little
two party before the party. Did you ever hear the
old It's like an urban legend about the guy that
was planning as ives party for his wife or something,
or vice versa. Maybe the wife was planning it for
the husband, and he came home all excited that he
(09:09):
was gonna have the house completely to himself, and he
was gonna, like, I can't even say it, he was
going to rub things on his privates and he was
gonna take he was going to like basically take care
of himself. And he started doing it, and everybody jumped
out in said surprise. There is a story. How long
were they waiting? Yeah, or how fast? I don't know.
(09:30):
I believe that it was actually a true story. He
couldn't wait. He got started in a car. But you
got to make sure you don't do that or walk
on that when you're coming over to a person's house
and yell in surprise
All Rightie is Mojo in the morning. Hey, Shannon has
