Yes I do name my machines which makes my repair people kind of crazy. when I call with a question I refer to them by name and have to go and check the model. I see them as my friends. I really enjoy my time with them and care for them like friends, cleaning oiling and using care that they don't get "hurt". I also have someone to talk to other than myself when I am alone in the room and hopefully don't look as crazy to others that may overhear me. LOL!
