My mom’s birthday is coming up so I made her a card. I submitted this design in the Crane competition (I was not a selected designer. boo hoo), but I thought my mom would get a kick out of it. We have this running joke between us, I call her Betty (not her real name) and she calls me Windy. These are our alias names that came about from people not hearing our correct names when being introduced to us.
Anybody else have a mis-heard “alias” name? Do tell.
Side note: Before Windy came into play, the #1 response to my name when I was little was, “Whitney, isn’t that a boy’s name?” Way to crush a 5-year-old girl’s heart thoughtless grown-ups of the 60′s. In all fairness, this was well before the Whitney Houston craze.
