This is absolute.
I'm beside myself.
Norman is no longer.
My son says my name is no longer Norman! WTF?? Is he allowed to do this?? Can he just CHANGE my name like this with no warning? What am I going to call this blog NOW? I mean - the whole premise of this blog is that he called me Norman. Now what am I going to call it?? "I am Mommy?" Nah... that doesn't have the same oomph.
I liked being Norman. It gave me some individuality when he called for me. There was no mistaking who he was looking for. Other kids would yell "Mommy!" And I never turned around. I knew they weren't calling for me. Someone yelling Norman?? I'm whirling around in circles looking for my kiddo.
And now it's no longer. He's announced that my name is now.... mommy.
*sigh*
So. Should I change the name of this blog? Would it be illegal for me to keep the Norman name on here knowing that I really am no longer Norman? Would that be a lie??
Let's do this. Have you ever noticed that people look like their names? Assuming that you CANNOT use the name "Norman" - what do you think I look like? Do I look like a "Jennifer" or or ... maybe a "Waldo". What?? What do you think my name is??
What's my name NOW??
Maybe you can teach your other kids to call you Norman.
If not, I like . . . Dilbert.
