Matilda has been watching The Golden Compass over and over and is resentful of Hec and me, to the point of tears, that we didn't name her Serafina Pekkala
Well, for good reason; how awesome is that name, after all? (And the character, too.)
After I did some family history research on ancestry.com, my mother announced that if she'd known her grandmother's first name, she would have named me Bridget. Huh.
Sophia, Martin Sheen just emailed me too!
ION, wtf? Also, didn't anybody think this might not be a good idea?
I hate to sound uber paranoid, but it sounds like brainwashing techniques doesn't it?

Yeah, it's the sort of things cults do. I think it gets people to fear everything outside the cult.
In other interesting derby news, I got my first insubordination penalty yesterday at a scrimmage. It was my own fault. I drew four minor penalties (four minors = a major = 1 minute in the box). But instead of waiting for the refs to notice and call me out, I went directly to the penalty box and served a minute. Then two jams later, the refs caught up with the penalty trackers and called me out to serve a major. I argued that I already served it. Arguing with the refs = insubordination = 2 minutes in the penalty box.
oh, and Happy Birthday, Allyson!
Birthday Happies, Allyson!

Which is kinda what they explicitly said was the point of the exercise.
::shudder::
Oh and happy birthday Allyson! You are a rock star!
he'd kind of have to be smarter than he looks.
I know I go on and on about Channing Tatum looking dumb, but that's really lazy shortcut for everything about him, not actually his looks. Which I just don't like, is all. What looks stupid about Ashton? I mean, he's really pretty, but that's nothing relevant.
But hardly anyone uses that irregular verb, right?
Well, if you don't count the Commonwealth, no.
