So, eunoiay where you're kind of stabbing at good thinking but maybe not all the way there? Because I can't let go of the "sometimes Y."

Hah, and I get a whole bunches of people!

One of the german words I loved for a name beyond anything I can explain was Ihnen. Unfortunately, it means "them" which would be mean. But I love the sound of it (EEN-nehn.) There were a few other german and french ones I disremember.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Noah? Grubby? Unpossible.

I had a brief sadistic urge to name kids of mine names that mean the same thing as my name. Luckily moot.

I am so trying to convince myself not to go to the ER. I was just there!

That's a fascinating challenge, but I'm not sure how much of that I could stand to read. I think I like some of the comments better than the excerpts. He does seem to have a point about the vowels having different personalities.

Sometimes they kind of look dead. [ETA: the puppies] But real dogs are like that too when they're that kind of crashed out relaxed. Sometimes you have to poke them just to be sure.

(Oh god, I just remembered this. A few nights ago, Lucy was lying with her back leg (singular) tucked up underneath her so you couldn't see it and I totally kicked her to make her move because it freaked me out so much. I don't even feel bad about it.)

ita, I hate to tell you this, but you mostly have seen him clean. I mean, he's a little messy. But I picked him up at daycare and went to see folks and he was all super dirty from that. Just holding him made my white shirt not so clean and it wasn't even a shoe issue.
