Eff That Corner

All my life I have been afflicted with nicknames. I am not sure why, I suppose that I just have one of those personalities that cries out to be named in some other fashion then the name I was given at birth. Not all of the nicknames have been favorable, my ex-husband has been the creator of quite a few of these, but they are there none the less. The one I find the most amusing and most frequently used is Baby, I'm not sure why but it seems like everyone calls me Baby at one point or another. I find this extremely amusing since I don't exactly see myself as the 'Baby' type, but you know, I'll roll with it. The most amusing out of the Baby moments is when an employee who I have not, and never will, meet face to face starts calling me Baby over the phone. Sometimes I just feel like laughing because it seems so second nature to them. One of these days I'm going to say..."Nobody puts me in a corner!" In simple response to one of the many "How are you doin, Baby?" moments that I get. My favorite nicknames though have been Kitten and C-Dub. Kitten by several of my exes, who have come up with this separately and on their own, but always for the same reason. Then C-Dub because I rocked out a Cat Woman costume one year for Halloween, and everyone went from calling me Cat Woman to C-Dub because it was shorter. By the way...the people doing the new Batman movie totally missed out when casting for Cat Woman. Little did they know that I was tucked away in north west Arkansas just waiting for them to call me. Hey guys, if Anne Hathaway doesn't work out just send me a message, I'll be all over it.
