Who Will I Be Today?

by Kay Heitsch

June liked to call me names of people she knew from her past. One day she called me Arlene. I asked, "June, who is Arlene?" She answered, "Oh Arlene is my sister-in-law. I want you to be her today." I responded, "Okay, well since I'm your sister-in- law, how's my brother doin'?" Without a blink of an eye, June said, "Well, the last time I saw him he was doing fine." Since I'm always someone other than myself with June I came in and she said, "Who do you want to be today?" I said, "Well, you know my name is Kay, but I kinda like the name Vicki. So why not call me Vicki today." June gave me a 'Jack Benny' look and said, "Okay, Maxine!"
