family shenanigans

Names have been changed to ~protect the innocent~

Friend: Hi, Alice!
Sister: Um, hi! :D
Friend: You don’t remember my name, do you.
Sister: Michelle?
Friend: No, Emily.
Sister: Well, I was close.

[little while later]

Sister: Hey, so can I call you Rachel instead? Because I can never remember the name Emily.
Friend: Sure, okay.
Sister: Hey Rachel, can you pass me my phone?
Friend: Man, this is the highlight of my day.

LMAO @ my sister, seriously. She ended up calling Emily 'Rachel' for the rest of the day, no lie.

I'm horrible with names, too. Maybe it's genetic? Like, there's this one guy I've talked to every week for the last year, but I couldn't tell you his name for the life of me. Tom? Jamie? He looks like Jamie, idk.

It's really bad. Like, anytime he talks to other people I eavesdrop in case someone uses his name in passing, BUT NO ONE EVER DOES. D: It's gotten so bad I almost think that no one else knows his name, either, and he's just a dude with no name and curly hair.

Haha! Oh, God! He has no name. Poor guy. XD

But I understand it I am so, so bad at names! Most of the time I have no idea what my teachers are called! I barely know the name of the girl I've been hanging out with in school the past weeks... I just. Everytime someone introduces themselves my head just shuts down, I don't have control of it, and then I realize later on that I have no idea what the person's name is! XD
