This time of year tends to sap my brain. The phone calls roll in at work faster than I can answer them, and after a while, I struggle to make sense of it all.
Yesterday, for example, I had a string of voicemails to return. I picked up the phone, dialed the number of one of the ladies who had called me, and when she answered I said, "Hi Rebekah, this is Vera from the Financial Aid Office." Pause, pause, pause. Then I said, "No, that's not right. You're Vera. I'm Rebekah."
Fortunately she had a good sense of humor and could understand days like that.
But it's my new name now. Just call me Vera.

hey, Vera!
It's changed already - it's chubby vera now. That's a long story. A funny one, but a long one.
Have you ever walked into a room or office, looked straight at someone and said "Hi ____, this is Bekah."
As if you were on the phone?
