23. You can hide beside me, maybe for a while//And I won't tell no one your name

So.

Ah.

You guys know how pretty much every time someone new comes here I talk to them, as you do, well I don't really mean talk I mean talk as in talking to them over the journals which I still count as talking even though some people don't because it's a good way to communicate and sometimes they explain why they chose their name to me and I figure that it's only fair if I do the same to them and I tell them that I picked my name because in my dream I heard the word "bridge" several times so I named myself after a bridge because it seemed like a logical thing to do, yeah?

Turns out my name is Bridge.

... I'm just gonna curl up on my futon and feel stupid now.

Well, yeah. ^_^ Last I checked I was all still here.

[inthecenterfold.livejournal.com]

That's not what I meant...

Like you're still the same person. Call yourself Daisy-pup for all I care, still the same guy.

I kinda like the idea that a name's something you should give yourself, not something someone else gives you.

[handy-psychic.livejournal.com]

Ohh, I gotcha.

I like the name Bridge. I think that's what I'm going to go by from now on.

[inthecenterfold.livejournal.com]

Your choice man. Just don't think it's stupid if you like it that much.

[handy-psychic.livejournal.com]

Oh, I don't find my name stupid, I was saying I feel stupid for hearing it in my dream and not realizing it was my name.

[inthecenterfold.livejournal.com]

Dude if that was the case, then I could be Pervert, Lech, Now, Che, Living, Just...

Get my point? Names are weird things.

... Don't know your family do you?

[handy-psychic.livejournal.com]

Hmm, yeah. Still, that was the ONLY word I heard in my dream... but oh well, it's immaterial now.

And no, I don't remember my family at all.

[inthecenterfold.livejournal.com]

Huh. For some reason I felt like you shoulda' learned something about your family along with that. I dunno why.

[handy-psychic.livejournal.com]

Probably 'cause Bridge is kind of an unusual name, hmm.

[inthecenterfold.livejournal.com]

Well I'll give you that I can't remember or get any familiarity off that name, so I'm willing to bet it's "kind of unusual" anywhere.
