Tangent Tuesday.
Emily.
While it IS my name. [and on a side note.....I do love my name.]
I do not like it when the Pita calls me by my [REAL] name. When he says it, is sounds painful. Like it's hurting his mouth to say it.
em ILL lee.
I'm pretty sure proper names go by the wayside in romantic relationships.
I rarely, if ever, call the Pita by his given name.
It's always: [no laughing]
Pita
dude [when it's serious] ;)
butt chunk [time & place people -- time & place]
babe
fob
Kiwi Boy
and mostly by our last name. That's what his work people call him and it's stuck with me.
He showers me with similar names:
babe
blogstitute
Woody girl [Woodway]
S.A.
running freak
Em
......all of the above make me smile and or laugh.
I can name on my hands the times he has called me "Emily" in almost 14 years. And it makes me squirm.
We had two offenses in TWO days?!!?
Pita: How far did you run?
Me: [mumble, mumble] thhhhrdy
Pita: um what? Did you say thirty?
Me: [silent]
Pita: em ILL lee. That's just dumb.
And the next one was pretty much just because he had forgotten how much I hate it when he calls me by name that........he found a way to do it again.
he's. just. awesome. like. that.
Who is this man calling me by my name?
Who is this person calling me by the name EVERYONE else does?
Guy who mans the Costco door knows me by name = awesome.
Mailman = works for me
A few employees at Trader Joe's = you bet cha
The Pita = no.
no, thank you.
Am I alone on this?
Does your boyfriend/girlfriend/husband/wife/significant other call you by your REAL name?
