It Rhymes With Gucci

Or Susan Lucci. But not Jim Belushi.

That is all.

ETA: That is not all, because everyone got confused, and now I feel bad. So I will explain. Ruchi, as in, my name, rhymes with Gucci. And Susan Lucci. But not Jim Belushi because it's a hard "ch" and not a soft "sh." Also, don't feel like you have to call me Ruchi. I am perfectly fine being called Arduous, I just figured half the world already knows my name, I might as well give up the charade. Besides, I am proud of this blog, and of this community, and I stand by my writing, so why NOT associate my name with it! So there.

Revealing your identity, huh? Such a cryptic post...until I noticed the "posted by" part.

EcoBurban said...

Pucchi! I imagine you bright and vivid, a little abstract and very high quality and expensive! ;o) JK, I think I have a idea of your name already anyhow...

ruchi said...

Lauren, hah, I wasn't actually going to post at all about it, because it's SO not a big deal, but then I thought people are going to ask "how do you pronouce that?!"

EBM, heh. I used to get called Poochie too. :)

EcoBurban said...

Oh, that version of Pucchi just isn't as fun. Didn't those Poochies used to be a fluffy stuffed animal?? I swear my little sis used to have one.

ruchi said...

Yes, a little dog with a pink bow.

Sam said...

Now I know who Susan Lucci is. Knowledge is a wonderful thing.

And until I read lauren's comment, it was a cryptic post...

ruchi said...

Darn it. I guess I should have fully explained more. Oh well.

Green Bean said...

Wow! That is too funny. I was going to post earlier but felt lame because I figured it must be some hot thing all you young fellars are doing. Aren't you the sly one.

ruchi said...

Ok, clearly I was way too coy. I am officially editing this post.

Natalie said...

OMG, you really ARE difficult! I take it aaallll back. :-) Kidding, of course.

Is this the Facebook influence or what? I saw Green Bean's real name on two blogs in two days. I'm too much of a simpleton for y'all to go changing your names on me now. So Arduous and Green Bean they shall remain. And Beany, same goes for you. Even if your real name were Beany, I wouldn't want to hear it! lalalalala

Melissa said...

the mean girl in my class used to call me mepissa, if it makes you feel better :)

ruchi said...

Natalie, I think I've called Green Bean "GB" to her face. Feel free to call me "Arduous" for the rest of time. It is kind of Facebook influence, but it's also that the more involved I get in the APLS community, the closer I get to everyone, the more I feel like I want ... people to know my name.

Melissa, the mean girl in my class called me Mary. You all, feel free to call me Ruchi, feel free to call me Arduous, but I do not answer to Mary. You have all been warned.

Sam said...

My real name _is_ Beany. Full name is Beany Countery. And I like my beans.

Sam said...

Oh...and I've been called Samosa by meanies. So if anyone calls me Samosa, you will be on my blacklist for life.

ruchi said...

Beany, I thought your real name was Bald Eagle?

Cath@VWXYNot? said...

I only knew what you meant because of Facebook!

Sam said...

I am many things to many people (inspiring, a self-proclaimed goddess, a beancounter, a bird and so much more). Thus the need for many names.

Allie said...

Hey! Congrats on claiming your blog with your real name! :)

ruchi said...

Cath, yes apparently clarification was necessary!

Beany, yes, my name for you is Inspiring Eagle Goddess Counter. It's a little unwieldy, but I think it works.

Allie, thanks!!

Stephanie said...

I had NO idea what this meant the first time I saw it. Thanks for the ETA, which I saw later! Also helps explain why your name shows up differently now, heh...

ruchi said...

Yeah, I thought the name change would be obvious, but apparently not so much.

Robj98168 said...

My name is Rob. Rhymes with Bob. But sound different spelled backwards.

Everything is obvious here. Why do you need to explain it?
