Lisa refers to my head as a "stink sponge"

I walk out of The Body Shop - it smells like Apricot bath soak
I walk out of a coffee shop - it smells like patchouli
I walk out of the barn - and I give s***head a new meaning

Bren,
That's funny. My wife and I were considering calling our son Brenden however we settled with Ryan. We thought he would spend the rest of his life correcting people who spelt his name wrong. I always get people spelling my name everything but the correct version.

but, when you tell the story now, do you say, "i once had a 'boyfriend' in high school?" just curious

was he/she contemplating changes back then? i think that would have been a weird conversation...?

No, like I said. Never would have thought.
Cee Ann was beautiful, and "seemed" to be very very into the time/times we had together.
The strange conversation came at my 20th high school reunion when she/he was telling me how sweet and goodlooking I was in high school. Turns out that another very pretty girl from high school (that you would have never guessed), was her partner.
I didnt stay at that paticular party long.

My wife gave me the "Rockhead" handle. My parents didn't give me the traditional Irish spelling of "Sean" as they were worried that people would pronounce it "Seen". I ended up with "Shaun" rather than "Shawn". Back then (40+ years ago) Shawn was more of a girl's name. Anyhow, I am a mix of Irish from my mother's side and Welsh from my father's side.
With a middle name of "Patrick" I've got the full blown Irish thing happening!

Oh it was fun, but at the time that revelation came as a shock to everyone and everyone was asking ME questions about it that I couldnt answer.
Just a wee bit awkward.
