"Name that xpap"

Post by Bright Choice » Sat May 07, 2011 1:50 pm

I am so caught up with BleepingBeauty's love affair with "Houdini"! Congrats to her for waging the war on all things apenic!!

So, I am curious to know what others are calling their xpaps.

I am already imagining what kind of comments I am going to get

But, I am already bonding with the new S9 ASV that I haven't even gotten yet. I need a name...

I just call mine Baby. And I didn't even give her that name until I had to part w/her for 6 weeks earlier this year. Lordy, how I missed her whilst she was gone even tho I was provided w/a loaner.

Some people don't talk to their spouses either, and they have names!

I tried to think of a cute name; but nothing really works.
I'm not using the original Elite any more; now I have the Autoset, an amazing machine.
It feels awkward naming a device, which will be replaced by a better model in the fullness of time--yes I'm fickle.
I don't name my cell phone for the same reason.
I would still feel naked without either one.
