The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I have no food, which is bad. I do however have coffee. This is a good thing.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I've never chose to use my middle name. I put it on forms when it's asked for, so it ended up being on my UNO e-mail address, but otherwise I don't give it out. I do use the initial sometimes, even though there isn't anyone else with my first and last names in North America (maybe not the world, certainly not findable by Google).

I knew a guy in college whose middle name was L, because it was meant to honor both his grandfathers, who were Larry and Louis or something. His first name was Jay.

And now I'm wondering if he was secretly a relative of Superman.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

But then when I got to the practice of law I found out everyone uses their middle initial professionally.

That explains Mark E. Salomone. I think it's very awkward.

I sign my middle initial on my checks (and a good thing too, since my signature is basically capital letters and horizontal lines), but don't use it professionally or in correspondence.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

I use my first initial very rarely, but it does come up.

Up with the sun

I don't usually use my middle name or initial, but I still inital things EJO. (Actually, ejo, because that looks prettier in script, and that's what's really important).

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'd cheerfully go by ita Suzanne. I just don't feel a need to be ita Suzanne t lastname ever. Or ita S t lastname .

Too much, too many.

When I was a bank teller, we had to initial things a lot, and I made up a thing where my j and f in cursive looked like an H. Now I kind of toss an F in with a horizontal line across the JH.
