One thought on “Last Call!!”

  1. Great post! It’s a very interesting topic and kind of hard to figure out. It seems to depend a lot on the individual. For me, I prefer people use my first name regardless of their age. My mom prefers to not be called by her first name unless she knows the person quite well. But like you said, I’m always thinking about food, so just don’t call me late for dinner! : )
