I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Neat!

Herding cats for fun

I didn't know they had siblings named Proton and Deutron. A themed set!

Dr Electron's career has improved considerably since the day I took DH to have a mole check. Good for him. He had elegance and presence so I'm sure he's comfortable moving on a higher plane.

Also I would never lie to you about something as cool as doctors named Electron and Positron. You won't get any fake news from me. I cannot tell a lie.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OMG, that family is amazing!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I'm just amazed at the synchronicity. I should post authors' weird name more often!

Now I'm wondering if she's aware of her super-villain namesake at Marvel.

I knew about Dr. Electron Kebebew! Probably because I have a minor obsession with unusual names, and follow the Tournament of Naming [link] religiously. (It's an annual ritual to try and read through the brackets without having to stop due to inability to breathe and sore tummy. The runner-up this year was Dr. Narwhals Mating.)

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

That's the best name ever.

Way back when I was a CSR, I kept a list of the oddest names I came across. The kid named Kozmyk Moses is the only one I still remember.

I ran across a D. J. Moo the other year. He wrote a scholarly article on a religious topic, but I like to think of him spinning tunes in a cow suit.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

It's been raining on and off here today. Went out in the morning, but not in the afternoon. (I took a nap)
