I just remembered another nickname my mom had for one of our babysitters growing up. It was Roachafacea. Real name Kimberly, she unfortunately got her new name while camping out in line for some Rick Springfield tickets. At some point a cockroach made itself at home on her face.

In a related story, my mom saw Rick Springfield's stanky, dirty running shorts hanging out to dry near his RV. Naturally it occurred to her to swipe the shorts. She had them framed and gave it to Rochafacea. The story has a sad ending because the shorts were lost when Rochafacea's house caught on fire. No one was hurt in the fire. Just lost an important piece of history.
