Erin! Congratulations!
Fred: It's the pictures in my mind that are getting me. It's like being stuck in a really bad movie with those Clockwork Orange clampy things on my eyeballs. Wesley: Why imagine? Reality's disturbing enough.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
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.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Shir, it is good to see cool things happening for you.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
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.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
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.

Daniel and I just had our Thanksgiving feast - ham with sweet potatoes, scalloped potatoes, sugar snap peas, and an apple-cranberry pie. Yum.
