Spike's Bitches 22: You've got Angel breath
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I've seen many a listing of children named Arwen and Eowyn, though not so many Theodens or Eomers. I think I saw an Aragorn as a middle name, and more than one set of twins named Luke and Leia.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Owen took a staggering, unsupported step this morning. He's still very much in favor of crawling.
Cindy, thanks for the reminder! I called Deena. Who has a rich, lovely phone voice. I can't see how anyone could say "no" to her on the phone.
I've got to return one of my dining chairs this evening because it's got a huge flaw (that someone tried, badly, to cover with wood putty). Feh.
Ima go take a nap.

-t, I'm so sorry. That must be awful for you.

Susan, I'm so sorry about your dad. I hope you get your five more years.

Deena, I'm sorry for the news on Aidan. But I chime in on what so many people have said -- great strides have been made in understanding and treating autism, and I know Aidan will get great care.

Stephanie, my old boss had a similar dilemma with Ellie, and he went with Elianna. (I'm not completely sure how they spelled it, but it was pronounced Ellie-aw-nuh, not Elllie Anna.) I do think a formal name is usually better for birth-certificate purposes.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Hence, the Emeline.
I am miserable. Still sick and blech. And we thing the baby is teething.

{{t-}} I'm sorry. Much ~ma and strength to you.
Susan: I hope things turn out as well as possible for your father.
Deena: I'm glad Aidan's autism was caught at an early stage.
Aimée: Sorry you're still feeling sick.
March in general: Back off the Bitches already!

I just had therapy. Surprisingly, she wasn't that upset about the whole decreasing the dosage of medication thing. I think her exact words were, "Well, now that we know that's not effective, we won't do that again, right?"

Although of course Emma is a perfectly good name with a very long history. Among others, I was named after Queen Emma of France (and maybe the Norway one, too). And there was a Queen Emma of Hawaii.
That's just a historical tidbit, not a suggestion that you run out and change the birth certificate or anything.
