I have forwarded all last name suggestions to my husband for approval.
And I myself will be wearing pink taffeta as chenille would not go with my complexion.

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

I wonder if some of the newer markets will be revived.

Update (in case anyone was waiting with bated breath): My FIRM INTENTION to post my ComicCon 2004 pics has been thwarted by my CRAPTASTIC ORGANIZATIONAL SKILLS. I couldn't find the disk this morning. I'll try again tonight after dance class. That is all.
Except for Timelies to the Lovelies!

My last name is easy to pronounce, but people tend to misspell it by adding an extra L.

Mostly lurking...
My last name is the easiest thing in the world to spell. People frequently leave off the last "s," though. So, I end up saying, "Like the season, only with an 's' at the end." That usually gets them.
So, my morning with financial services was a nightmare. Bastard had yet ANOTHER story on how this should go, and of course I was missing things. AND, he didn't NEED some of the things that he told me earlier were a must. I was so angry. And to top it off, he said I'd have to come back next week and reschedule all of my doctor's appointments until then. Well, um, NO. I had therapy scheduled at noon, and dammit, I needed it after that. So, I asserted myself and told him he was going to submit this paperwork today or else. Guess who is now pending?

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

Hey, are you related to Buffy?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Yay, vw, with the asserting! Very impressed.

I tend to get people adding letters to my first name and making it rhyme with my last name. Which...my parents are fuckedup, but they're not THAT cruel!

Lately I've been able to tell people, "Like the runaway bride."
I really hate that woman for making my name sound stupid and flaky.
t stupidly, flakily worries that employers will subconsciously have a negative impression of my name, because WHAT ELSE COULD EXPLAIN WHY I HAVEN'T BEEN CALLED BACK FOR THAT WORK-FROM-HOME EVENT PLANNER JOB YET, BECAUSE I'M PERFECT FOR IT! PERFECT, I TELL YOU!
Um, carry on....

I have a very nice simple last name, very rarely mispelled. It's nice, because if it had been the least bit complicated, my life would have been hell.
