Quite Forgettable, Actually
Wow. I was caught a little off-guard, if not shocked. Either he is SUPER bad with names, or I'm really really forgettable. He couldn't think of my name! Eek! (Names, other than my own, are omitted here to protect the forgetful) Well, good thing I had a pneumonic handy; hopefully we won't find ourselves in that awkward situation again. HOW LONG have we known each other? TWO years? Gah! I have your cell phone number, for pete's sake!
Actually, I've come up a number of pneumonics for my name through the years. NOT because I had difficulty remembering my name, mind you, but because people have the darnedest time pronouning a phonetic name. So, to help people out I tell people they can pronounce my name like:
1. I "RANG" the doorbell with a "T" in front
2. "TANG" like the drink, with an "R" in it
3. "TRIANGLE" but without the "I" and the "LE". Hell, you can call me "TRIANGLE" if you want. I actually kind of think it's cute.
Yeesh.
Unforgettable, that's what you are
Unforgettable though near or far
Like a song of love that clings to me
How the thought of you does things to me
Never before has someone been more
Unforgettable in every way
And forever more, that's how you'll stay
That's why, darling, it's incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too
Unforgettable in every way
And forever more, that's how you'll stay
That's why, darling, it's incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too
