Random Fact About Yourself

This is a bit embarrassing. But I keep reading B.Milliken as:

B. Milking

I am probreastfeeding and grew up on a farm. Perhaps you sense some of this in my postings.

Dragon King · #**1233** 07-31-2010, 07:26 PM

Specifically the one where there's a picture of you and the word "BREASTFEEDING" behind you?

That must be it.

It's still embarrassing to see Milking and then go oh my god it's Milliken.

Milkin is the most common mispronunciation of my name, but it's not the worst thing I've ever been called.

I'm so sorry. My brain is so spaz sometimes.

I know it is Milkin. Mil-lik-en

Correct?

B. Milliken · #**1237** 07-31-2010, 07:54 PM

Phonetically spelled: Mill-e-kin.

No need to apologize. I'm not that sensitive. If you were here I'd sing the song for you. . .M-I-double L, I-K-E-N spells Milliken.

J.P.Clyde · #**1238** 07-31-2010, 08:05 PM

lol.

Sounds like a beautiful song.

B. Milliken · #**1239** 07-31-2010, 08:13 PM

Absolutely. Not everyone has a song to go with their name. The other day, the security guy at work sang me a song using my first name. He said he wrote it for me.

I'd be afraid if I were you.

B. Milliken · #**1241** 07-31-2010, 08:17 PM

Perhaps a little odd, but he's the security guy, who else could make you feel more secure?

Right, but what could be worse than the security guy being your stalker? Prepare yourself for the worst, Mr. Milliken. We live in a crazy world.

Sounds like a good idea for a story. Make it a security woman who starts baking cookies and pies and then writes songs and letters, driving the intensity of the relationship to psychotic levels.

That does sound like a story! A good horror short story or something. *jots down idea*

Thanks! Or should I thank myself? I'm not sure.

Sounds interesting. Friendly guy.

Writing.Geek. · #**1246** 08-01-2010, 04:52 PM

Sounds like a great story!

I think both of you created it. Milliken sparked the idea, Reddy finished the idea.

Rei · #**1247** 08-01-2010, 08:23 PM

It's fun when that sort of thing can happen, Geek.

Anyway, Mom and I went to see Romeo and Julient in the outdoor theatre today. I have seen a couple different movie versions and a stage version that told parts of the story in Itallian opera and some in ballet. My mother admitted that, despite all the Shakespeare she has been to, she has never seen Romeo and Juliet, even a movie version.

J.P.Clyde · #**1248** 08-01-2010, 08:32 PM

Sounds like fun Rei.

Shakespeare is awesome beyond belief. Much Ado about Nothing is my favourite, but R&J is also epic

I believe coffee shops started selling iced coffees to keep me addicted through the summer months.

I am having difficulty adjusting to silence as I have just returned from a heavy metal festival. It was awesome though.

Writing.Geek. · #**1252** 08-02-2010, 08:27 AM

How long was the festival, Evil?

From Friday to Sunday night (technically this morning), but I went up on the Thursday for an extra day's camping. The bands were awesome.

Kids these days. Back in my day we called them Opera Houses or Theaters. Where the finest of the composers and play wrights came down.

I'm totally kidding. I'm glad you had fun. Just make sure you didn't get a brain hemorrhage from all the head banging.
