Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
My mom is a Patsy Ruth!!
I can't believe there are two! How cool!
Erin! Congratulations!
A TED invite is very cool.
Went on a walk yesterday, went on a walk today. Hope I can keep this up. Probably walked about 2.5 mi again, but some uphill this time. And went on some streets I never checked out even when I was growing up here. Found a high pressure gas line, which is what blew up on San Bruno. Only I hope this one, y'know, doesn't blow up.
Congrats Erin!
Shir, it is good to see cool things happening for you.
Erin, that's FABulous news! Yay job! And a pretty great job, too!
Oh yeah, the southern double-name is ubiquitous. The famous Jim Bob Walton, Eddie Ray, and his son Eddie Ray Junior, Carol Ann, Jane Carol. I knew three Jane Carols growing up. And three Ann Maries. Caroline was always "Carralin". Then there's my cousin Effie June. And Zen's right, they're all run together in speech so they sound like one word.
My mother had wanted to name me Sarahjane. She didn't like Sarah Jane, but really liked Sarahjane, for some reason. Then when she knew she wanted to name me an H name, she considered Hildyanne and Hildysue. My mom's not southern, she just likes the compound names.
When I was coming up with a name for my firstborn, I very seriously considered Mary Jane. I wanted to somehow name her after my mom Mary but didn't want to call her the exact same name. In the end, I went with my mom's middle name.
Also Georgia's former governor, Joe Frank Harris.
