Not The First Time, Either

1st Volunteer: The garage guy gave me his card.  He has a vehicle available.

2nd Volunteer:  I haven't met him.  Who's the garage guy?

1st Volunteer:  Lemme see....somebody named Shay.

I feel your pain!

Most people call me "Dani", which is a contraction of my last name before The Squire and I were married. You can imagine the "oh, I thought you were a man" remarks I get. Even introductions, strangers will reach for The Squire's hand and say, "Nice to meet you, Dan" immediately.

Hoo Boy... as a woman named Kyle, I get this All. The. Time.

My nickname is Sam (it annoyed my mom, so I kept it). At college, I ran the sound and lighting crews for concerts and the 6'1" Hawaiian guy named Sam did hospitality. We always laughed at the band reactions to this.

Funny how we end up with the names we are supposed to have, regardless of what our parents named us. That said, I'm glad my father nixed calling me Morag.

Bunnykins, you are absolutely correct. I really have a Dani personality, rather than an Anne.
