The World According to Patty: My name is PATTY.

Friday, July 10, 2009

I was introduced to someone Corey works with (we'll call him Bob) at the grocery store a couple days ago. This is how it went down:

Corey: "Hey Bob, good to see you. I'd like you to meet my wife, Patty."

Bob: *looking uncomfortably at Corey, then tentatively shaking my hand* "Fatty? Nice to meet you..."

Me: *side-eye at Corey* "Uh... it's Patty actually. Nice to meet you too."

Corey: "Dude, did you just call my wife Fatty?"

All of us: *uncomfortable laughing*

Fatty. Come on now, really?
