You got some 'splainin' to do, Lucy!

Lucy, I'm home!

I forgot about the guy at the Kia dealer. He calls me Doug. Not my name. I think he's being an a**hole because I got upset with them for not fixing a problem. It's still not fixed so I think I'll start calling him Wilbur.

Yes, several different people at different times have called me Carol, which is not my name but I guess I looked like a Carol, however that looks.

Talking .

I’ve usually gotten the same response from time to time over the years where people (mostly co-workers) in a teasing manner would say to me.

___________ ___________ are you back here again?
___________ ___________ where are you going?
___________ ___________ why did you do that?
___________ ____________ are you really that stupid?
___________ ____________ you didn’t do that again did you?
___________ ____________ what makes you think your right?

My guess is that it could have ( may as well have been ) both my first and middle names.

Everyone tries to call me William. I refuse to answer to that since my real first name is Bill.

Oh yes...I have been called several other names, most of which I earned by doing something wrong.

My family went through a stage in the early 90s of calling me Morticia because all I wore was black, I had black hair and I had the white face and black eye makeup.

In everyday life I am often mistakenly called Brigitte, the odd thing is that I was going to be called that name up until I was born and then my parents changed their minds, I wish they hadn't, I would have prefered that to the one I got.

If I was a boy I would have been called Luke.

Most I can't repeat on here. I get called Butch, Uncle Nancy, Jo, Sir, (must be the flat top)! I've been told Nancy doesn't fit. One person always mistakenly calls me Mary.
