So that's what all those initials mean...

These are all my amazingly diverse friends who have such wunnerful nicknames.

  • HLW - His lovely wife (PTV’s that is)
  • BMB - My best male buddy
  • BUF – The best useful friend. She called herself this so don’t blame me. She is one of my dearest and closest friends in the whole wide world.
  • VNSO - Very nice significant other (belongs to the BUF and is a good friend in his own right). He is also known as my dancing partner.

  • E2O - Same person as above, but her new name after she got another Eeyore for her birthday!
