    The chick with the two white fluffy dogs. Literally! Moved into a new neighborhood and was walking my dogs one morning. Some guy off the porch said "I heard about you, you're the girl with the little white dog (I only had one at that point)".

    We're infamous.

      At work, for my users (the people who use the computer application I am in charge of) I am "the person who gets stuff done." There are four of us on the application team, and they all call me if there is a problem!

      For my family, I am "so capable" or "the fun sister". Although my sister Aya is pushing for the "fun sister" title. We can be joint title holders, I guess

      For my neighbors in my house by where I work, I am the "phantom" because I am only there 3 nights a week.

      Oh, and at Jimmy John's I am the "Number 12 with half the sprouts" girl.

        I know what I was in my old neighborhood.

        One day I had stopped by a park in our neighborhood to use the restroom. There was a bicycle safety event going on, and the police department was involved. There were 3 cops standing outside the restroom. As I walked away, I overheard one of them ask the others:

        "Isn't that the woman who walks dogs?"

        I guess if you are going to be a "known entity" to your local men & women in blue, there are a lot worse things you could be known as!

          the lady with the long red hair.. (I have heard that multiple times)
          or
          The lady who is always pregnant... (or has lots of kids)
          or
          the lady who emails tons of questions about scouts (for those who haven't really met me..just seen plenty of emails from me)

          And I am fairly certain to several scouts, I am the 'mean lady' cause I tend not to be so pleasant when telling kid not to run or be on stage, or whatever. (I am also pretty sure to several kids I am 'the lady with the red hair that did the cool science stuff)

            Not sure what I am but I doubt if any of the names are complimentary.

              I'm the "easy-going personality" girl. People always tell me that I have a very positive outlook, always in a good mood...etc... It's mostly true but I have my bad days too.

                I'm the "always has a sarcastic/clever response to any statement or question" girl. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's bad.

                  My husband and I are known as very good tippers. The waitresses fight over who is going to get us. We eat out so much, the computer has a button that says, julie's usual. When I order, I just say, my usual!

                    The best math tutor in the world (to my students, anyway)

                    Oh, and right now I'm also the best mom because, out of the blue, I threw a luau for my little family last night for family night and then we silly stringed each other out in the yard. What fun!

                      When shopping people probably assume that I'm some spoiled high school/college kid who puts everything on a credit card for her mom and dad to pay off.

                      At school people assume I'm a lot smarter than I actually am because I don't speak a lot in class. Somehow quietness translates to smartness, but I won't be correcting them anytime soon.

                          I'm "little mama" at work, as I am the youngest in my work group who has just had a couple of kids.

                          Among other friends, I'm the girl who knows how to find the cheapest everything around town.

                          To my husband, I've become one "stressed mama" who is forever worrying about the kids.

                            I think around the neighborhood I'm just the girl with all the pets who's always walking two dogs.

                            Growing up I think I was always viewed as the stuck up one, because I didn't talk to people. I think that has carried over into my adult live as well, unfortunately! I'm far from stuck up and anyone who has taken the time to talk to me knows that. I just don't usually talk to people.

                              Around the neighborhood I am probably "the guy that runs with his little boy in the jogging stroller" or "the son of ABC and XYZ..." My parents live around the corner and know everyone. That is usually how I am introduced. "Oh, you know ABC and XYZ. This is their son." Ordering pizza from our favorite pizza place down the road I am 1/2 mushroom/onion and 1/2 sausage/banana peppers. They don't even ask for a name.
