« One Million Masterpiece revisited | Main | Save money by adopting a cheap addiction... I mean diversion » March 21, 2008 5:17 PMYou know you are getting old when...Chinese people have started introducing me to their kids as "Auntie Winona". I have never thought of myself as being an "auntie". The word elicits images of grey permed hair, cardigans, eye glass chains on bifocals and false teeth. *shudders at the thought* Since when did I transition from being a "jeh-jeh" (older sister) to "auntie"? Your 2 centsI agree, Auntie is good. It's friendly and shows respect. 2 cents from: Asianmommy on May 30, 2008 1:07 PM my niece (almost my age!) is close to having her first child. somehow 'granduncle' seems absurd enough to be charming. 2 cents from: sj on June 8, 2008 8:24 PM Would you spare me some change?*Feedback is moderated and does not appear until approved. |

I just had a group of teens call me 'sir,' in response to a question about directions. Be happy it's just Auntie now instead of ma'am :-)
