... and they call the wind, the wind.
I was asked today what name I would like to have as my log-in at school (these things are only done once a year.) I asked for my derivative, which I see far more as my "real" name than my birth name. Which was fine with out IT peson, who always calls me that.
It does bug me a little that the Office Staff call me by my formal name, having been advised of my preference, but I guess that's because all the paperwork they handle uses it.
Something like a Criminal Records Bureau check does not allow for abbreviations.
But they don't call Mrs I Joanna, they call her Jo.
Still, she's been there for 11 years and I haven't officially been there one.
I'll win them over.
And I need to find some more windmills to tilt at, this one's getting old.
