upon thinking today, my mind raced through all of the nicknames that people call me. and its funny, because i dont like people to call me anything other than megan.
(or when i was a drag king performer, my name was braylon for 2 years straight, and when i go out, it still is, but whatever)
so there are a few people i let call me "meg". like once in a while, my dad will say it, my friend lauren calls me meg and my cousin jen calls me meg. and its only those 3 that i tolerate it from. if you call me meg and i dont like it, i will kindly ask (yes actually i will kindly ask) you to not call me meg again.
theres one person that calls me "meggers", and thats my supervisor, scott. and him and i have had long deep conversations at work. we're pretty tight actually. he is supposed to be contacting me within the next 2 years when he buys this farm out in canada and he is building his own house and he wants me to draw up his construction blue prints for him. so thats gonna be a sweet gig. and actually i dont mind the name meggers, i would let someone test it out on me, sure, but i think its ok when he says it because he says it with enthusiasm like hes glad to see me. so maybe thats what sells it.
and "meggie" is another one. i HATE being called meggie omgggg. other than my (ex) sister-in-law, gail, i dont recall anyone calling me meggie. my brothers i think used to tease me with it when i was younger, but thats about it.
and of course theres the name given to me by my aunt ginger "meg pie". but that ones long gone from like grade school.
speaking of grade school, i was given the name "stewpot" by derek otter. one day we were sitting in class, trying to dream up nicknames for everyone there based on their last name. mine was stewpot, his was oatmeal... i remember matt gorhams was goulosh, lindsay clarks was clark bar. thats all i can remember. no ones but mine stuck. so i was known as stewpot... until 7th grade when the 8th graders thought itd be *funny* to nickname me "ham".... so NOT funny. but thats what they all called me that year. i just went along with it. whatever...
yeah... thats it... i strictly go by megan. and for the few people that call me meg, its ok cuz im used to it from them. like my cousin jen, shes always called me meg, ever since i can remember. and lauren.. shes always called me that. and dad just calls me megan when he is deep in a lecture about life or something blah blah.
anyways... i guess thats all i have to get off my mind tonight... im sure as soon as i post, ill be on writing another one just because i cant get to sleep with stuff on my mind. but if not, the blog world shall hear my words tomorrow! :)
