There are those who call me "asshole" and others who simply say "hey" or "hey you". Those who have developed a personal relationship to me learn to refer to me as "John". I realize how uncommon this name is. However, it is NOT my first name and I reserve the familiar form of whatever that name is for telemarketers to use as my cue to disconnect the call.
edy, I like your name. one of my best friends when I was little was called edwin my birth name was maria. my name is michael. mostly people call me mickey, sometimes mikey, sometimes red sam, terror of the north. sometimes dude, sometimes honey, sometimes sweetie, sometimes miss sophie (as in dinner for one if anyone knows this), sometimes auntie ria, although I resent that a little. I'd rather be uncle mikey
Shit! Did I type nights, I meant hours. And you're right, I'm not. I just always get a feeling of some sort of group therapy thingy with a lot of people introducing themselves.
Ooooh, bet I could pronounce it then I'm half Montenegrian :H And if I can't, then my ma could, because she's awesome like that
