I tend to name most of my household gadgets (my super cute vacuum, sweet pea, is one of my recent favs!). I recently purchased a new toy, a Garmin that is super fun, sleek, pretty, and has bluetooth capabilities and traffic updates. After much thought I named her Vivian. Why you say? I'm glad you asked...
Two reasons. First, what does Vivian do? She knows the streets and maneuvers them well. Who else do I know who did the same thing?
Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman also known as Vivian! But Vivian wasn't just a street girl, she was also a classy lady (at least at the end of the movie!)
How refined! Just like my sleek & super cute Garmin!
Second reason why I named her Vivian: she was a replacement of my first brand new Garmin that was stolen from my car (while I was at church!!) So, who else do we know that came in as a replacement?
new/replacement Aunt Vivian
Remember how we lost our first Aunt Viv on Fresh Prince of BelAir for the more "boug boug" one in later seasons? My first Garmin was super cute, petite, and it was just what I wanted. Now my second one has all the great features of my last Garmin AND is a little more "boug boug" (more features!)!
So I'm excited about Vivian Garmin, the newest addition to our gadget family! If you think I'm crazy for giving this much thought to naming a gadget...thanks! I am! And I love it about me! :-)
Calling people in the car just because I can talk to them handsfree,
