Aww...I love all the baby names! If I had a boy his name would be Giovanni Giuseppe. If I had a girl her name would be Janessa Trinnette.

Growing up, my mom owned a preschool. There wast his precious happy little baby named Janessa. She was perfect in my eyes, and her name has stuck with me all these years. H told me if we have a boy, his middle name has to be Giuseppe -- family tradition. I chose Giovanni because it's my favorite Italian boys name.

I love the name Janessa, so pretty! If my son had been a girl, I would have named her Alycia Lane (after my grandma Alice).

A recent AITA was about a woman who wanted to name her daughter Arya (for Game of Thrones) but spell it Aughreighyah so it would be unique.

See, "generate fluid quickly" sounds like something you do at Pep Boys Oil Change. Nothing garish or spooky about it! (Trying to stay away from triggering adjectives here!) Well done, @@!

oh that would be torture for the child! My nephew once did an art piece where he spelled all the numbers from one to twenty, but he crossed out eighteen, even tho he spelled it correctly! Just too much pressure there!

It took 15 minutes the first time.

8 the second time.

5 this time.

I still can't bring myself to read this journal article that I have to write a review of that's due Sunday night.

I think there is something to this genetic stuff. Im kind of doing OMAD (one meal a day) and today i had roasted red pepper and cream cheese sangwiches. This is the time of year italians roast and put by bushels of peppers. And we pronounce it sangWEECH! The cream cheese is for the part of me that still believes im the missing Windsor sibling. Anyway, it was wonderful. Even just from a can. They were huge and beautiful and effortless.

I know someone named Janessa.

atisketatasket · Sep 28, 2020 at 06:31 PM

Info fashion report: sleeveless pale blue linen blouse, top 4 buttons undone. Gold stuff at neck and ears.

At one point she leaned forward, causing the blouse to gape, and it was like that the rest of the session until towards the end of the session, when she finally noticed and drew the edges together, then leaned forward again...

Other than that, she was especially irritating today. It was like paying money for an appliance that doesn't work.

LonesomeTonight · Sep 28, 2020 at 06:46 PM

Thanks for the report, and sorry she was irritating...

Last night i dreamed that i was a workplace and we found hundreds of kittens mostly tiny ones but some hlf grown ones and only one adult cat. Anyway we had to hide them from the boss ao you would open cupboards and kittens would pour out or open drawrs and they would spring out like jack-in-a-box open doors and they were hanging in tiny sacks on the other side of the door. But at the end the boss was in a cavalcade and all the kittens were stalking the float he was on.

Today I got a handwritten letter/card of "spiritual encouragement" talking about how these are the end days. It was not a mistake, it was definitely intended for me. Kind of creepy. I wonder how I ended up on their list of "neighbors."

Daffydungle · Sep 28, 2020 at 07:37 PM

I have to go shopping but hteres no hurry right? I have food for a couple of days why is there such a panic inmy head about it.

Tht sounds creepy especially if it is not wanted.

My cat has been grooming me in my sleep again it might explain the cat dreams

ArtieTheSequal · Sep 28, 2020 at 07:48 PM

Pics from today. Flowers in my backyard, and Penelope. It's amazing how many pictures I had to take of those flowers before I got the perfect shot. Like, lots!!

It's definitely not wanted as I'm an atheist. I guess I'd rather get a letter than have them come to the door, but I'm weirded out by them having the name associated with the address since I rent and I don't know how they know I live here. Only place I can think where that info would be available to some rando is voter registration.
