My extended family, including in laws, includes two Ryans and a Bryant. Context has become very important.
This is so nice. Having everyone together for my birthday. Of course, you could smash in all my toes with a hammer and it will still be the bestest Buffy Birthday Bash in a big long while.

Goodbye and Good Riddance 2016: We know the world didn't end, because, check it out!
Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Thanksgivukkahmas, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering.
Go away, 2016.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
In 2012 the A's had four different guys on their team named Brandon, and the Giants had three Brandons.
It was The Brandon Singularity.
You could've put together and All Brandon team.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I'm with Laura on hearting Kat.
I forgot to say thanks to Bonny and Theresa for the cards. H still goes, "Now, who?"
Y'all don't have any Wolodimr's in your families, do you?

Beverly - that was my favorite part of cards this year. C would ask how I knew each person as he signed cards. After all the answers of "Buffistas" he stopped asking. But it made me giggle. I had explained my Buffy friends to him a while ago, so he knows about my imaginary friends on the internets.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Not that I know of, Beverly. Nikolais, Olegs (I forgot about the multiple Olegs), Vsevelod, Igor, Boris, but not even a Vladimir. Unless my brother's cat counts.

(I just wanted an excuse to put y'all and Wolodimr in the same sentence) We have two Borys-es, a Bohdan and an Ihor, several Natalias, and an Effie June, a Lula Mae, a Lillie Belle, and a Maud Eliza.

The Wolodimr/y'all juxtaposition did not even strike me as unusual, which is amusing me now.
Oh, yeah, Natalias, Irenas, Melania, Shirleymae, Weed, Reno, several Minors (family name), I forgot about the multiple Barrys, too. Quite the variety.
