Thursday, May 26, 2005
Today the new person in our department came over to check my nameplate, because she has trouble remembering names. (And mine is a tough one.)

She said, "Oh, Tavie."

I said, "Yes, it's short for Octavia."

She said, "It's cute."

"Thanks," I said.

"You'd never guess," she continued.

I didn't know what that last part meant. My interpretation is that I have a cute name, and that you'd never guess that someone like me would have a cute name.

Because I am so uncute.

Well, yeah, I know that, but... sheeeeee.
