someone likes to point out my problems with pronunciation. here are the two latest examples and the metaphors that go along with them:

1. envelop (pronounced like envelope. no. exactly like envelope): this was discovered during a discussion at Plato's Diner about how a boy can just ENVELOP you in his arms. i don't know how this transitioned into my exboyfriend loving egg goo and wanting to dip everything in it... and then ME being egg goo. "he wants to dip me in everything... no... he wants to dip everything in me.... EW." yes. i know. stupid.

2. plutonic (pronounced pluuuuut-on-ick. like the disney dog. or like platinum. as in the club. or as in plutonium. the element. hey. that was the name of our colorguard show this year. yep): this came up in another discussion during a meal, this time at Bennigan's. this is not the first time i have been made fun of for this slip. sigh.
