Xander ,'Beneath You'
[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.
I'll endorse all of those. Matilda sounds like she's going to end up quite a wordsmith. All in the family.
My daughter said if she ever has children, a girl will be Sloane and a boy will be Zander (or Xander, not sure, it's intended to be a variant of her name).
We picked names that could be boy or girl names but from the start K-Bug's name was the girl choice and CJ's name was the boy choice. Even with a 6.5 year age gap and trying to have baby number 2 that whole time, we never came up with a new girl name. Luckily CJ was a boy and we didn't have to scramble.
I didn't get a middle name when I was born, instead I asked for one for my 18th birthday. Ended up sharing it with K-Bug and it would be nice to see it filter down to the next generation - but I'm not going to be upset if it doesn't.
I am now idly wondering if there's anyone in the US who's named their child Sharknado.
Almost cetainly
Sharknado J. Smith, of Craptacular Falls. Sounds about right.
The coolest girl's name I ever encountered was an RA at my university named Rebel Holiday. She grew up to be a leetle bit sketchy, but I'll never not love that name.
Wow. I could not be having a shittier day than if I was actually covered in excrement. Seriously. What is UP with this day?
Huge fight with the manager of the pet care company. Apparently my supporting him makes him angry and, the new hiring practice which was put in place because HIS head was exploding, 'just doesn't work for him.' We've been doing it for 2 weeks, during which I have met every one of his needs. He he demanded that we stop immediately, because he said so, or he refuses to do his job.
Massive fight with dog walking client who is tremendously difficult. I wrote a good email for the owner to send to the client. Pet care manager, see above, hits reply all with a snarky remark about cutting her loose. Client explodes.
I can't even.
Ooops, didn't need to say that twice.
Oh, ugh, bonny. I'm sorry. That sounds utterly shit-stained. Does the manager have some secret giant trauma going on that he's trying not to tell anyone about and it's leaking out around the edges and poisoning everything? That's the only reason I can think of for him suddenly going full-tilt asshole out of the blue.
Unless he's always been listing asshole-ward and today happens to be the day he reached his tipping point.
Bonny, I have often thought that it sounds like you do so much work for that business and handle so much b.s. for it, that you should just have your own business.
I got out of the house today! In my own car that I was able to drive myself. Right in time to be snowed in again this weekend. I was honestly feeling so very trapped. Now I'm home and exhausted. I picked up a already cooked chicken for dinner so that cooking would be less work for TCG.
