I currently have the nearly 40yo Castro Convertible sofa that I inherited from my grandparents by way of my mother. It weighs 50 bazillion pounds, but it's holding up surprisingly well and will probably need eventual reupholstery, but I could believe that it's good for another 40.
Oh, God. Oh, God. My hair. My hair! The government gave me bad hair!

I think since it's been a day and we don't have the Babyfras name, we need to pick one for her. (Which is what y'all did with Casper when her birth was announced without a name. And I found it hilarious and kinda touching to read the thread later.)
All I know is Sparky said the names they had lined up weren't in the top 1000. Which doesn't necessarily mean totally weird. But could! My pick is Louisa, because I love it and it's not in the top 1000.

I favor Voltairine myself.

I mentioned Sparkles earlier, but am now leaning more toward Sparkler.

In suggesting real names, here are a few of my favorites since I'll never have a girl to name:
Lurlene, Adelia, Bijan, and Josephine.

Well, I love Sparkler as a board name.
Maybe Charlotte? Cecilia? Those might be in the top 1000, though.
I had a woman (in Colorado) ask me how to spell Francisco yesterday. Made me chuckle because I thought of it as an unusual name but it's so common here.

That's awesome!
We watched a Cardinals pitcher pitch an entire game shut out last night and it was pretty cool.

Are we talking about Glee somewhere? Because I thought it was really great and want to know when the next ep is going to be on.
