Day 19-Nicknames you have and why you have them

oh this will be a fun one because i LOVE my nicknames!

here they are, in no particular order:

kar
karkar
karbar
karl
karls
karlisha

i am pretty sure karkar was given to me by my dad. he would say to me when i was younger... while thinking he was so clever and funny... "karkar, go get in the car car." and then we would laugh and it was great...

kar is obviously a shortened version of karkar, and this is what most of my friends call me. i love it...

karbar is josh's nickname for me, and i have no idea where it came from. one day he just started calling me karbar...

karls and karlisha were given to me while working at the bank last year. two of the other tellers came up with them. sam called me karls (and still does) just to be cute, and chelsea (who is african american) decided that since i had a black husband i had some street cred, entitling me to a "black" name... hence karlisha...

karl is my sister nickname. no one besides my sisters calls me this and i kinda like it that way. when you are as close to your sisters as i am you should have a little special something that only you share.

so there you have it... the ins and outs of my nicknames :)
