to clear up anything

so while talking with my cousins yesterday, the topic of annonymity on my blog came up, including code names. so cousin johan (who's married to my cousin) asked what his wife's code name is. so i told him (with a smile) that i've called her squaw cousin cuz she married an indian (ok, so it sounds bad when i type it out like that), and cuz that's far cooler than being swedish. i figured he wouldn't be too offended (considering his first thanksgiving with our family, he brought some deer jerkey, and laughed, saying that the indian brought the venison), which he wasn't, but he gave me a hard time about it. that got me thinking, though, that perhaps i shouldn't call her that, considering that people who don't know me might read this blog. i don't want to accidentally offend someone, or come off as some kind of racist hick.
i told him he could choose her new name, but the only one he gave me isn't appropriate either. he was obsessing yesterday, though, about it being frustrating when people ask him who his best friend is and he says his wife and they say she doesn't count, so to show that i'm on his side in that, i think i'll start calling her cousin johan's bff. unless someone comes up with something better.
