I hate inside jokes and codenames

I hate inside jokes and codenames

I had no idea it was National Library Week until Rockstar* mentioned it on the phone. Someone needs to remove my librarian crown or something.

—————
* I’ve decided I really need to make better use of clever nicknames for people; Rockstar is a friend by way of lovely dusty_chenille (who I will now nickname MC Loving, or is that going too far with the nicknaming?); I have also dubbed a dubious coworker Blonde Ambition. Watch this space for more nicknames, people. If you want one, shoot me a comment and I’ll work one out.

    Your Library Ccrown shall be replaced with the Crown of Shame.

    Tsk tsk.

    My word! (Who is it!???!!!)

    It should be National Jen Week. I do really miss you and Sherman’s/ Movies nights… it was a brief time but I would have wilted completely in the desert without you. I have been a bad girl though with not keeping in touch :( Trust that I do read your LJ and am with you in spirit even if my commenting is pathetic these here days.

    I still have the SAME 760 #… call me anytime!!!!

      Dude the only mutual friend we have, silly – Matt, who is more or less a Rockstar, yes?

      I think of you, too. I know it was a baddish saddish time for both of us, but I also know we got each other through it, yeah? It’s like we were in ‘nam together, except not. :)

        I thought it was Matt!!! He is quite groovy. :)

        I will always spill a little of my alcoholic shirley temple on the ground for you, my veteran sister. I wish I could afford to come visit… isn’t it funny I miss the old desert a lot at times?

      Okay this is hard. Because seriously? So much.
      Soulsistah J?
      Jaymaymay?

      I kind of like Jaymaymay because it sounds like Anne Uumellmahaye from The Man With Two Brains.
      I’m also partial to Tallulah in honor of Tallulah Bankhead, or maaaaybe It Girl in honor of Ms. Bow?

      I think that’s it, really. It Girl you are.

        I want to download an mp3 of “Under the Bamboo Tree”.

        Also, did I tell you that you need to rent ‘Pennies From Heaven’ with Mr. Dreamboat Martin?

      You already have one, and I’m afraid it’s not very original…you’ve been Actor Boy for forever, or since 1995 or so. As in “You know, David? Actor Boy?” Sometimes your nickname is suffixed with “from Florida” – but not always. I believe I have also refferred to you, in certain circles, as Fishnet Ripper, but we don’t have to go there.

      Since Jack Black came on the scene you’ve also been referred to as Jack Blacky Actor Boy at times. I could upgrade you to Actor Man if you feel that would command more respect. Or we could try on The Director for size. If you want to stay away from profession related nicknames, you could be Capt Ivar’s Sidekick since I always have a mental image of you sitting with that Ivar’s statue down at the docks in Seattle.

        Fishnet Ripper

        Oh *my* does that sound dirty, dirty, dirty.

        Jack Blacky Actor Boy

        I could live with that one. But The Celtic Menace does have a pretty swank ring to it …

      Oh oh! Or how about The Celtic Menace? It makes you sound like a superhero. Pretty awesome.
