Nope, it's just an online thing. But then again, the only people I know who like Lord of the Rings are online

REALLY? That's crazy. I can't believe it. I know so many people in real life who ask me if I've read LoTR. I have to say no, and then they get mad at me.
*sigh*

Now, Idril, you have one more nickname that you forgot to put on that list, now don't you, Thelma? Hey it's better than Pez Head.
I have had so many nicknames in my life that I can't remember most of them. My friends from high school called me Mel or Missa. I had one friend who called me Duckie. And another who called me Dicey in Middle school. Someone used to call me Mo, but I can't remember who. My husband calls me Miss. (Probably because he can't remember how to spell Melissa. Understandable since we've only been married for 5 years.) I had one boss who called me Me Lisa and sang it with an italian accent on it just to drive me nuts. And someone I know calls me Louise. Hmmm, wonder who that might be? Then of course there is M. Which I'm quite fond of. Always makes me think of how they referred to Moriarty on LXG. I like the idea of being an evil mastermind.
So yeah, lots of nicknames for me. I'm sure there are lots that I can't remember. Oh and my entire family calls me either Missy, Sis or Aunt Sis. There is always one Aunt Sis in each generation in our family. My Aunt Eleanor was the last one and now I'm this generations. So every person in the family that is younger than me calls me Aunt Sis even if I'm not thier Aunt. And everyone older than me, including my own parents just called me Sis.
M.

Well considering we have the same name, M...I get "Missa", "Mel", and "Lissa" a lot, too. My dad refers to me as "M" when he types because he's lazy, and types with two fingers...plus the time he did that, it was on //my// keyboard, which has stickers all over the keys. xD But anyhow... My younger sister called me "Sissy" when she was younger...now she just calls me mean. Anyhow. M, I would say we have to compile a list of how much we have in common but I think it would be a little extensive.

My brother and sister sometimes call me Ginny, because they know it gets me mad. See, my grandma went by Ginny, so everytime someone calls me that it makes me feel all old. So if you want to stay on my good side, don't call me Ginny!!! It's Gia, Vie, Virginia, or mage. Or whatever else. Just NOT ginny!

Now how do you pronounce "Gia" or "Vie"? I have somethin' going in my head but I doubt it's right.
