Are you back home now, Sail?
My only complaint is when people spell my name with an H. Or call me Nikki.
I like books. I just don't want to take on too much. Do they have an introduction to the modern blurb?

Spike's Bitches 29: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[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.

My name doesn't get messed up too much. In the official version, I sometimes get ruh'-shell as a pronunciation, but not often.
But, my maiden name was Thompson, and about 1 in 5 people would say Thomas. WTF?
How do people do things like have careers or write books with (pre-)toddlers? Seriously. Other than child care, all that was on my list today was to revise one 5000-word story, and not one word got revised.

My BFF's name is Lauren. When we lived in England, people would constantly refer to her as Maureen. We were puzzled.

Darlin Nikki, you still around?
Ok, if you are still talking to me, check your e-mail.
If you aren't - well, you can sleep in the dog kennel in May.

Yup, I'm back home, Nicole. We had an absolutely lovely and hilarious wake for my aunt. Many stories, tall and short, were told and we now have new family catchphrases that will live in infamy. Particularly one that has to do with cutting clothes off of a family member. I'll leave it up to your imagination. Hee. Actually, it was all about girlish competition over ankle socks, of all things. But, while the technique has never yet been duplicated, the threat has been used quite effectively in other parts of the family over other items of clothing. Now, that's a legacy to live up to!
Well, for me, Suzi, I could never get enough SuziQs. So, I guess I'm saying there will never be enough of you to go around and satisfy us all. ;P

I get Deborah sometimes. I guess it has the same key sounds - the d, thr r, the b - but it's still kind of odd.

Yay for the name change, SuziQ! I like it.
People are always leaving the 'h' off of my first name.
Teacup Guy was supposed to be here at around 12 to watch the pre-game stuff for the first regular game of the Red Sox season. I rushed home from my doctor's appointment, and he is still not here.

Ack!! That song by Prince is my main squick with being called Nikki. It brings flashbacks to rollerskating and Garrett the Parrot and Richie following me around the rink singing it to me. Loudly. They'd request the song just to torture me with it. Aaaaaaah!
SuziQ sounds like a sweet name but she's EEEEEVVVVIIIIILLLL!
you can sleep in the dog kennel in May.
However, let me be clear, Suzi being evil contributes greatly to why we get along so well.
