Monday, November 24

Just when I was thinking it had been a long time since an IANLWI, a repeat offender! A guy at work sent an e-mail to me this morning, but started the e-mail by calling me Lisa. This is the same person as on August 19--proof that I DID hear him correctly! I find it so weird that people make the mistake AFTER typing my e-mail address and seeing it resolve to my name.

That's Not My Name

This song by the Ting Tings is one of my new favorites, mostly due to the fact that I identify with the lyrics:

Holding back, everyday the same
Don't wanna be a loner
Listen to me, oh no
I never say anything at all
But with nothing to consider they forget my name

They call me 'Hell'
They call me 'Stacey'
They call me 'her'
They call me 'Jane'
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name

They call me 'Quiet Girl'
But I'm a riot
'Mary', 'Jo','Lisa'
Always the same
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name
