Oh, I think we all know how popular the name "Amy" was in the 70's. Hence, my reason for changing Emma to Emeline shortly before she was born.
Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

I wish I knew when Jessica dropped out of the top 100. It was in the top 10 for at least 5 years before and after I was born, but seems to have gone completely out of fashion at some point when I wasn't paying attention.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah -- my freshman high school English class had two Jessicas, me, and a boy Jesse.

My maternal grandmother (b. 1895) was Maud Gladys. My paternal grandmother (and Sox's) (b. 1908) was Eleanor, which I've always liked and is now a niece's middle name.
My RL name, Elizabeth, is just never going to go away because of all the nicknames it spawns.

Too many books? Nah, probably not true of anybody here, but... here's a cool idea for storing excess books: Hang your books from the rafters

Has anyone seen the Kevin Henkes book Chrysanthemum? It's about having an odd name - pretty good for the pull-up set.
Heh. When I was a kid, my made up name was Chyrsanthemum Diamond. I thought it sounded very glamorous.
ION, the workmen are here FINALLY INSTALLING MY CABINETS. I wish that I'd thought to make coffee before they got here. Technically, I still could, but it would be inconvenient for them, and rude not to offer any.

I'm in class, after driving through really heavy rain, thanking some deity or another that it isn't SNOW.

Yeah, we were supposed (at one point) to get 1-3 inches of snow but instead got NONE. Woo hoo!
GA: I know!!! Do they actually hate women with careers to make them so unable to have relationships? I am so happy that (at least for now) Derek/Meredeth are finally done.
