Lake Drive - Have not had to spell that one yet. I have been asked for NE/NW/SE/SW designation though since most roads have them here.
Cacophony. That's pretty. What's it mean?

Guess how Devon is pronounced here.
I know that one! Also Goethe.
I am too tired to think about interviewing and updating my internal resume and changing roles. But I will express interest to get the ball rolling.

My mom's had a little sunrise plaque with a Goethe quote on the wall of our/their bathroom from before I can remember, but I only learned I was mispronouncing the name when I took high school German.

Goethe doesn't not rhyme with Goatse.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Couch St in Portland is one I like.
I was guessing Dana might be in a situation like the Muses in New Orleans, but I guess not or that story would be longer.
Of course, it had to be pointed out to me how ridiculous it is to pronounce the L's in Vallejo all Anglo but the J as an h-sound because I'm so used to it. Always a little anxious about saying Putah Creek, though. Can't get used to that one.

When I did news clipping work but with listening to various radio programs, there was one Eastern US show that consistently pronounced Mojave as "Mo-jave." I've seen several older maps that just gave up and spelled in Mohave (I don't know how to do the cool accented e."

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Nothing that fun, unfortunately.

Dee-Nice makes me think of that key and peele sketch with "A-Aron"
I live on a number street now. How does Chicago pronounce Goethe?! I know Devon...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I would also like to understand Devon and Goethe. In trade, I'm happy to pronounce Concord, Peabody, and other New England place names for you.

That has always amused me.
