The checking can be done. And I think I'm going to insist it BE done. Because we have a small window before it goes from being a complicated thing to accomplish to verging on impossible.

Punishingly Intricate
Poor kid is going to have an awful time in school.
eh. According to my 2nd grade teacher sister-in-law, kids rarely give each other shit about "odd" names anymore. Names are just so much more diverse now then they were in the past. And I think Bishop is actually pretty traditional. I kind of like it.

Okay, it's 23 C (74F) outside, with humidex making it feel like it's 32 C. (89F) However, our air conditioning is in high gear, and so it's about 18C (65F) inside. And yet, I just went to look out the window at the fog, and the radiator is pumping out heat. It makes no sense.

Thanks, dcp. I've marked it for reading later (like practically everything that is not whining here or writing my dissertation).
we have a small window before it goes from being a complicated thing to accomplish to verging on impossible.
Then I'll insist of my Pollyanna-ish-ness and keep thinking that if it had to happen (and, well, in a world that has Murphy's laws, it obviously has to happen), at least the timing is as OK as possible under the circumstances. Good luck with that, either way.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Um, Sue? I think the camera is broken...

Bishop's normal enough that I've worked with one or two of them.
Lillian's in class with a Sparks and a Ransome. Names these days. Sheesh.

Nilly, did you know that all of Dr. Horrible is now up on something called Whedontube (or at least it was)? Since you were avoiding the Buffy/Angel thread, I thought I'd mention the next time I saw your font in a timely manner.

Sadly, it isn't...Don't you see a little bit of shoreline in the foreground.

Yeah, that's crazy.
Also crazy is the voicemail I just got from a headhunter because I had been "highly recommended" for the position of Executive Director at an arts education organization that recently opened a big new facility. Seriously? I can't imagine anyone who actually knows me would rec me for something like that -- it's well out of my area of expertise.
