"Mr Biden is eatting at DH's restaurant right now"....

mom replied "DH???.. who is DH"

Damm Knotting acronyms..

Anyone else do that?






What differentiates an average host and a great host is anticipating unexpressed needs and wants of their guests.  Just because the want/need is not expressed, doesn't mean it wouldn't be appreciated.

    I do it in actual conversation. As in a say "F" "I" rather than fiance.

    And then I do the quick glance around to make sure no one heard me.

    It's very difficult to actually say "my husband" rather than "H."

    I've stopped myself a few times on FB.  But I do not recall saying it out loud.

    I've never done it outloud, but I catch myself doing it on facebook or my blog once in a while.

    FI knows he's FI, now.  I do say it on fb every once in a while, but only on other P&E'rs posts.

    Before I was on these boards, I was on an unnamed message board when I was pregnant. A lot of the acronyms are the same, yes I have said them out loud, yes I have used them in text and FB and people always say "huh?"

    I've been pretty good about it, but I usually catch myself first.

    And, Mr. Biden - like, VP Biden??

    yep.. He is on island for the second year in a row.  They stay on Water Island.  But decided to come to DH's restuarant for dinner.  I think the daughter has friends staying at our resort.

    We are from DE, so I thought my mom would find it interesting.


    Jimmy and Roslyn Cater are in the VI also (but in St Croix)

    I'm still kind of amazed that no one else commented on that. 

    That's awesome!  I hope he's a good tipper.
