nicknames

nicknames are a funny thing. and i think we have the best ones in my family. they usually start out as an insult (usually made up by baylor). here is a list of my family's nicknames:

dad- rad
mom- glom
me- cheech, peech, cheechin, and on special occasions, chubby cheech
olivia- plivian, chivian
porter- smeej
baylor- b-bob, chay
cooper- (his are my favorites) ploppin, lint and the blonde

the inspiration for this post came from a text i just got from my dad who i am waiting to get on skype with and he said "i'm waiting for crunchy..." the rest has no part in the story. BUT for those of you who don't know "crunchy" is one of my best friends AND my boyfriends brother, his name is actually carson. and i was just thinking that the evolution of his nickname is by far the best and i think the longest lasting. it started about 3 years ago when he broke his foot and was on crutches and we called him crutchy. we were going through a phase where we were calling everyone with their names starting with ch (hence chiv and cheech.. another evolved nickname story for another day) so it was charson then char-char then then between those and crutchy, crunchy somehow stuck. and my whole family, (including my dad) calls him crunchy. or just crunch.

if you have made it this far, you may be wondering why you wasted time reading this post. and what the point of if was. well, i will tell you. there is no point. just more of my rambling and telling you random things about my family and my life that i find to be humorous.
