My mother fasted all day yesterday for a test today and then ate something last night after my sister left. ::facepalm::
I'm going to tell them not to reschedule the test; there's very little they could learn that would make a difference, anyway.
Early: So is it still her room when it's empty? Does the room, the thing, have purpose? Or do we -- what's the word? Simon: I really can't help you. Early: The plan is to take your sister. Get the reward, which is substantial. 'Imbue.' That's the word.

Social Security Baby Name lists are out (late - they usually come out the Friday before Mother's Day!) [link]
In shocker news, Michael, which was #1 for 40 years, is now out of the top 5 boy names.
Casper's name keeps on rising - #24 now, it was #88 when we named her! - and Dillo's and mine didn't move much.
Scroll to the bottom to see how creative spelling can get.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Interesting - the old-fashioned-girls-names trend seems to be bleeding over into boys names, just barely edging out boys-names-that-end-in-N. Lots more biblical names on that list than in years past.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Ugh. There's really no graceful way to say "friend, I really like the stuff you post on Facebook and appreciate the fact that you try to have substantive and thoughtful discussions there, but that other guy you're related to has gotten so nasty and abusive that I no longer participate or even like them because I fear having him pop up in my notifications all day when I do."

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Matilda has ticked up from #800 to #769, and my brother and SIL's newborn, Amelia, is at #30.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
So I bought a thing that is almost slightly too big for my suitcase. After about twenty minutes of poking, I have it ALMOST zipped.
No, it's not the kind of thing I can sit on.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Social Security Baby Name lists are out
Kaylee! Zoe! Malcolm! Serenity!
I'm gonna come right out and say it - Nevaeh is a stupid name. (It's "Heaven" spelled backwards.) It's hard to even know how to pronounce it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
If Zoe (#31) and Zoey (#28) were one name, they would be #7. Huh.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
are we supposed to guess what Dana bought?
I think it is a giant sloth.
