The older fellow at my aqua fitness class is still calling me Deb, which is so sweet that I haven't the heart to correct him so he'll say "Hi Deb!" and I'll just respond with "Hi [his name]" and we'll chat a bit and I mean I know how hard I have to work to remember the handful of names there that I do remember and I'm still trying to figure out who *actual* Debra (Deborah?) is (I think I know and she's been away) or if there even is an actual Deb/Debbie/Debrorah in the group/class but I feel like he got the name from somewhere and has just attached it to the wrong person, you know?
It's not all that high stakes in there for me to insist he gets my name right but I'm assuming at some point it'll get worked out, eh? And I've also just remembered that he's mentioned not being able to see (needs glasses which he, like myself, doesn't wear in the pool) so it's even more likely he's just confusing my fuzzy to him face with someone else's similar looking fuzzy to him face and that's ok enough.
Yours,
"Deb"

I get you, girl! We have a regular who keeps calling me Evelyn and I don't have the heart to correct him!
Awwwww! That's so cute :) (And sort of within the same vague realm-ish? Vaguely? lol) ;)
