Alright, people. I know that you all don't agree with my hyphen. I'm not asking you to agree with it. I'm asking you to respect it and respect me. My last name is Miller-Corcoran. Just because I have a different camping parts does not mean I lost my identity when I got married.
It is the 21st century. I refuse to live my life like it is 1942 and try to fit into someone's idea of what a wife is. I was raised by a very strong people who knew who they were and never falter from that. My grandmother is the most amazing woman to ever grace this planet. She knows who she is and is confident in herself. She raised her children to be the same way and consequently you have me. I will never give up the Miller in me. It's not all semantics. It's the most important thing I have.
So, please, the next time you address an envelope to me address it to Mrs. Kate Miller-Corcoran. And never call me Mrs. Nick Corcoran unless you plan on calling him Mr. Kate Miller.
