What's in a Name?

I was in the middle of writing another blog post when I hit a wall. In an effort to clear my mind, I decided I would divulge another little choice tidbit about myself for a laugh. Some people already know about this, but I thought I would write about it for poops and giggles.

I am terrible with names. I hate that I am that way, but it's just the way it is. As a way to remember people's names, I assign them names of my own. Goofy, I know, but I've done it for years. I've actually brought Scott in on the joke and he's started doing it, too. I'm more likely to remember a person's name if I see them on a regular basis, but unfortunately, life doesn't always work that way. After a few years of doing this, I starting naming people just for fun.

So here's my dirty little secret. I know some of you will identify yourselves in this list. Please know that I do know your name and the name I've given you is all in good fun and reflective of our friendship and/or something about your personality. Enjoy!
