Goddess PinkFluffyDuck ruler of all things!

I have a weird name

i hated it as a kid cos i got teased!

but now i like having an unusual name, makes me feel individual, for example where i work there are 4 people called Jackie! so if you call one you get 4 answers!!

but when i hear my name i know it's only me they want!

so i am for them, cept the chav ones, my name is an original name none of this apple blossom lark!
