1. s/o Names

   I get called "Chris" all the time. I even answer to it. I have given up on getting my real name. Even if I enunciate it VERY clearly...I still get "Hi, Chris!". *sigh* Back to my oatmeal.

   I keep saying "Oface" trying to get Chris. Chrisa maybe, but not Chris.

   I am so, so SOOOOO sorry ZSA! I don't know why that happened. Typically I use everyone's screen name in my head so the real names throw me off. Many apologies.

   The people at my favorite Chinese restaurant call me Sylvia because I need an American name. I also routinely get Athena, Alicia, Alyssa, and my favorite, the blank, helpless stare and a stammering of "aaaaaaah..." And on one glorious occasion, the bowling alley where I was in a league, who had my name typed out right in…
