Amy?

Did I do this to Tyler?

I sit at the Hospital waiting at the Lab for a blood draw. It's close to 5:00 and decently busy. There might be about 10 other people in the waiting room. I sit for about 15 minutes and the Lab tech comes to the door, and says, "Amy?"

So I stand, and head toward her, I can tell by her face something is wrong. I look behind me and TWO other people are standing also. She looks at the chart, points to a young girl and her Mom and says, "That Amy, you are 14?" The girl nods Yes. Me, and other Amy sit back down.

Later, again. Amy? (Like she didn't get it the first time) and she looks at the chart again, and point to the other lady, who is clearly older than me. Great...not me again.

Finally, Amy? I stand and walk up to her, and she smiles..."The last Amy!" Great, I'm now the last Amy...

Is Tyler as common as Amy? Mike and I have as common of cames as they come. With a VERY common last name to boot (Thanks a lot hubby!)...I guess we'll have to see if there are 10 other Tyler's in his class :)

Oh, thank God! Amy, I thought Tyler was sick!

No, if there is anyone ever sick, you can bet the majority of the time it's me!

My name is not common and the spelling is even less common... I wanted my kids to have names that poeple would spell correctly without asking, but names that were not too terribly common. Cameron and Spencer. We will see when they get to school how I did. (Oh, and I was supposed to be a Meghan, but my aunt used it 2 months before I was born. Thank goodness. There were 6 Meghans on my floor in college...)

Hi, I'm Amy too. I was supposed to be Lisa, but a neighbor used it for her daughter the month before I was born. I like Amy better anyway. Enjoyed reading your blog!
