I like it for boy or girl!
Yeah, my parents were having so much trouble coming up with names they could agree on that they decided to just pick one that would work either way.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Wait- Jesse is really Jessica!?! My mind is blown!
I KNOW!!

NOT REALLY. At this point, it's only the birth cert that has that on it.

Ugh, Corwood. Freaking people who have imaginary allergies or sensitivities or whatnot. grrr.
I hope for real committed not flakey buyers for you very very soon! Like this week.

If I had been a boy, I would have been named Jesse. It's so interesting to realize that when we were born, almost nobody knew what sex kid they'd get. I've even heard of surprise twins (though you'd think that would be pretty rare - two heartbeats, people!)
I think my sister would have been Matthew. My actual brother: Nathaniel.

Top baby names of 2009 are out (in time for Mother's Day).
Neither Leif nor Emaryn made the list. I'm a little surprised Leif didn't come up in the top 1000.

The buyer for my house terminated the contract because they are afraid that at some point in the future there might be a termite infestation,
Corwood, that is so lame. It's the south. Any house she buys that's not a concrete bunker has the potential for a termite infestation. If her termite company uses a baiting system, she won't be exposed to chemicals at all. Doesn't she have to have a reason that doesn't cause people to point and laugh in order to terminate a contract?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Dude, termites AT SOME FUTURE DATE? Sheee-it, my house could have a piece of Skylab land on it tomorrow, but neither we nor the seller felt that it was possible to inspect for anything beyond currently-existing Terminators.

Sorry about the flakes, Corwood. That is a pretty bizarre reason for backing out.
I know my parents told me what my name would have been if I was a boy, but I'm not sure I remember. Michael? Andrew? I know I was confused as to why my younger sister's what-if-she-was-a-boy name was different from mine - they hadn't used mine, why not go back to it? Or why my name wasn't the name my brother would have if he'd been a girl (though I don't remember what that was, either
