The Sniffling Sneezing Coughing Aching Stuffy Head so YOUR HEAD ASPLODE Medicine

[dolari]

This day has just been one wierd trip into an alternate universe.

1) I have a wierd dream about being in a Star Wars video Game.
2) Body refuses to sleep more than six hours. :P
3) After being "sirred" all day, someone DOES call me she, but decides my name is "Jenny."
4) I get home to find out I'm about to be served some kind of legal papers. Then find out they're for my neighbor and not me.
5) I get ready to watch some TV, and I pass out, waking up three hours later.
6) My ATM card suddenly is declined everywhere I go.

Time for bed. Maybe I'll wake up in the correct universe tomorrow

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaay ahead of you. :) I've known about this since it was called Texas Highway 130 in the 80s. Mind you, back then 130 was just going to be a road between seguin and Georgetown to ease traffic on I-35, but I've been keeping up on it, including the Trans Texas part of it since the late 90s. :)

Okay, actually, you are in a Star Wars video game.

But why is being called "Jenny" a bad thing? It's a common diminutive for "Jennifer" (and only for "Jennifer"). Using a diminutive is often a sign of affection and acceptance since it is less formal.

Mayne I'm tyring to have my cake and eat it too when it comes to my name but I absolutely HATE being called Jenny. Makes me sound like I'm six years old.

I prefer Jenn. :)

I guess it's hard for me to relate to. Having a one-syllable name, I've never been referred to with a diminutuve form. But I can understand not wanting to be made to feel like a child and you've every right to your preference. (I prefer to have my name pronounced "dove", like the bird, even though the more traditional Hebrew pronounciation is different.)

Still, look on the bright side: Being called "Jenny" made you feel like a six year old girl.

:D

Yes, yes it did. :D

This whole conversation reminds me of a scene in Quantum Leap where Sam jumped into a girl named Sam and said "Sam...I've missed being called Sam." :)
