Scratch and Sniff

I've recently come running away from a relationship that was not by any means a totally bad experience. The only thing I found not to my liking were the pet names this person had in mind and as I learned seemed to have an obsession over. Yes, Scratch and Sniff was just the icebergs tip. Like any good thing you get to much of, the week this relationship lasted I found out more about this persons sense of boundaries than I have in years with some people. It might have turned differently if I'd been named Sniff instead of the former, and when I suggested we might think about picking other names I was floored by the immediate excitement I encountered. Then the whole list and planned life time of this game was revealed. Just a small sample may illustrate: Puddin Pie and Wanny Poo, Roy and Dale, Turkey Lurkey-Foxy Loxy, Bow-legged Lou and Seattle Slew, Honey bunny and Funny monkey, Felix and Poindexter, Bonnie and Clyde, El Frito-La Cheeto, ,SweetiePetey-Beedy Bo-Bear-Bear, this went on 15 mins. easily. I laughed, said it would be a real hoot and very sweet.  Still being called Scratch I negotiated a casual retreat finally saying  " Good-bye my little sniff of sweetness, unparalleled in all of sniffiness", and immediately turned on my voice mail. It's been a week now and hasn't stopped. I hear: "Hi Coo-coo-bird,call me! ", " Mr. Hu-Hu, where you been honey." "Prince Pasha darling, take me I'm yours."   By the way her name is Debbie Little, go figure..............................
