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

V is for vagina. It's something Rio said a long time ago that pops up from time to time.

I've never had a fake name before

I don't know how to choose one. My siblings keep mocking me for that, but I just can't come up with anything, no idea, even just for fun and no real intention to use one.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Probably not, though I don't know the context.

The context is Rio-esque. It's the girl equivalent of cock-blocker.

You don't choose one. It's bestowed upon you.

Since you've already been turned into a verb, Nilly, I don't expect you need any more bestowing, however.

You are simply...yourself.

Moreso than most people, I'd say.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Ah. That actually is me at times, though I don't believe I want it as a nickname.

I've been having fun picking pen names of late, knowing that none of them are final in my unpublished state. Current frontrunner for the kind of stuff I'm writing now: Susannah Fowler. Today's choice if I ever need a male pseudonym, thanks to my muse's inexplicable fondness for military fiction: James T. Kelly. All based on family names in the hopes that they won't scream "fake name! fake name!"

It doesn't count when you're married to the bartender.

James T. Kelly.

One of Charlie Hunter's side projects (he's a hipster jazz guitarist) is called: James T. Kirk. They only play covers of James Brown, T(helonius Monk), and Roland Kirk.

I wouldn't even know how to choose a pseudonym, like Susan. I will never be able to be a spy, because I can't choose the name that will be used to hide my real name and make my identity secret.

James T. Kirk. They only play covers of James Brown, T(helonius Monk), and Roland Kirk.

When pop-cultures collide.

And oddly, not the one I'm usually blocking. I have issues with my female friends dating my male friends, at least if the guy has been a friend for a while. It ends badly and I'm expected to never talk to them again, or at least put up with the trash talking about them.

In fairness, I am friends with some flaky, womanizing, committment phobes, but I like them just fine since I know better than to try and date them.

Y'all need to help me with a name, or I'm asking the drag queens at the bar, and nobody wants that.
