On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

They call me by my name.

To be fair, marrying Brendon resulted in you having possibly the coolest name ever. It'd be a shame not to call you by it.

"What kind of magical sunshine and lollipop world do you live in? Because you need to be medicated."-SFist

Is Pierre to foreign sounding in the US? Or my grandfather was Louis, which works as long as people don't default to Lou-isss.

Pierre would probably work, although the pronunciation would be slightly off. But that's a good example of the fact that boys names don't match up (i.e., Peter/Pierre).

As opposed to so many of the girls names, which are spelled exactly the same with fairly close pronunciation (i.e., Charlotte, Isabelle, Ariane, etc.).

Okay, everyone make with the "what Pete said"s. I think it's only right.

Because books.

(That means the millions will come to me, right?)

Seriously, ita, I hope this works for you. You deserve to be pain-free.
