I thought I only had a few gray hairs, until I had the sides of my head shaved. Turns out it's much easier to see grey hairs where you part your hair, and harder to see them on the sides...until they stick out like that. Hrmph.
I assumed the specific name was for the year of birth, but then the decade's rank would be different.
Good point. This is fun! My name today would be Lila. Which makes me think of Sweet Valley High! I dislike most of the other ones though--Jacquelyne, Simone, Beverly, Chandra (is my decade's me?) but then as you get back it gets better--Celeste, Helene, Marilynn, Renee, Lily, and then gets worse again--Gertie, Orpha, and Golda?? I also did my middle name (Catherine) and am very surprised at the results--I feel like it's a pretty normal name, but it came up with Martha in the 1970s? I don't remember knowing anyone my age named Martha growing up!

The closest I've seen is pictures of Kelly Osborne when she had like a gunmetal gray color going on - can't say I cared for that but it was a dull and blah color and silver sounds shiny and pretty.
Oh, it's basically like that, but pretty!

Oh yeah, that actually makes sense.
You guys, I have been lightheaded all day and I think it's from stress and lack of sleep because I keep waking up in a panic and I don't like it. (Or, as Chris Evans and his nephew would say, I don't wike it.)
At this point, it feels like I have always had hay fever, and I never stop suffering from hay fever.
Also, sorry, but also GO DUCKS!
Not even mad about it.
My name would be Emmeline. Heh.

Plei, I think of what your response would be every time I see the tumblr post about
naming kids after constellations is so much COOLER than boring everyday names!
Waking up in a panic is not good, Jesse! Is it due to things that are happening that you need to do stuff about, or is it without reason (which is almost worse)?
I think right around when I was born is about the only time my name even shows up on the SSA list.

I reblogged that once with the response of "ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME???? FUCK YOU NO!"
I, err, may have said that to a panelist on a panel we were both on, in fact. "WHY WOULD YOU GIVE YOUR DAUGHTERS CONSTELLATION NAMES TO MARK THEM AS GEEK OFFSPRING??? WHY!??!"

Little bit of both? I have so much shit to do by tomorrow (and yet, I cannot stay away from here??), but like the actual thing I woke up thinking about was done on Monday.
I have a ton of stuff I could work on, but I have, like, zero brain because allergies. I'm leading a meeting in 15 minutes. I hope I don't just drift off and stare at a wall.
My name was #1 the year I was born. My today name would be Emma and my name from the 1950s back would have been Mary. Boring!
I love my silver hair, I wish I had more of it, and I think some dudes can totally rock a beard! Also, I really loathe the use of the word "hipster" as an insult. It's used by so many people to mean "person who likes things I don't understand or like."
