I got married before I had much of a professional history, to a man whose name is at the top of the alphabet, five letters, spelled phonetically. Changing was pretty much a no-brainer. :)
Stop that right now! I can hear the smacking!

Oh. My. God. Now it's to much for us to go. I swear I almost hope I have a wreck just to show them.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Daisy, are they truly that indecisive, or just idiotic?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I changed my name when I got married. Felt like the right thing for me. I still sign for packages at work with my maiden name, since the credit card I use for work purchases is still under that name.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I always hated my last name. Loved my dad dearly, just really hated his name which was hard to spell and harsh sounding (Schram--does anyone want that name ON PURPOSE?). I took my ex's name and chose my mother's maiden name as a middle when I got married and kept it because it was euphonious. I decided to change my last name to Jason's because I like it and it felt weird to have my ex-husband's name still hanging around. I still haven't changed it officially, so I am in name limbo right now. None of my name choices have been political--thay have all been based on how the sound of the names made me feel.

ION, I posted some t-day pics in my lj. No turkey shots yet, oddly, but some of you will be amused to see that they came up with a novel means of getting me to actually go to church. [link]
