A little off topic, but response to last sentence----How do you like being called, Hon, Honey, Darlin', Sweetie? I'd rather be called by my first name than these..... To me these names tell me you are not interesting in me as a person and couldn't care less if I was around or not.
During a recent visit to the ER one of the nurses kept calling me 'sweetie'. We will be doing such and such, 'sweetie'. I finally told him that he could do anything he wanted as long as he didn't call me 'sweetie'. That got a quick head turn!
the alternative is Mrs. O'Shea; no-one has ever called me sweetie, honey etc. They probably can sense with one look at me not to risk it.
