Smile: Charlotte is still doing really well after her eye surgery, so awesome.

Smile: Moira had her last chemo treatment yesterday and all of her numbers have been great!

Frown: I just threw up. Yay.

Good news!

Except for the barf.

Charlotte was one my top girl names when we were naming my daughter, but we ended up settling on Iris instead. Maybe baby #2 will be Charlotte?

What a tangled web you weave.

Frown: I always get anxious when my dog goes to the vet. Expecting the worse is the worst.

Frown: Lost 3.5k in an investment this year, at I was sent a letter to remind me as if I didn't know. That's like salt on a wound.

Smile: A long time friend of mine is going to visit for dinner. Jerk bone-in pork chops with a mango chutney and zucchini salad. I'll have Belafonte on the stereo, and cool red stripes for beverages. Hooray friends!

I had a few issues that kept popping when trying to decide.

1. People I knew with the same name. As in I didn't like someone who has a particular name so it soured me on it. Or it was a close friend or family members name.

2. Can the name be easy for other kids to tease about. I.e. my nephew is named Tucker, so I know how he will be teased. And a name like Gaylord...

3. Will the name be prone to beng shortened in a nickname like catherine-> cat or samantha -> sam etc..

Charlotte wouldve failed #1 and #2 screenings for me heh. I had an aunt named Charlotte and I could see it being used as charlotte the harlot or other such nonsense. Not that I think it is a bad name though.

As you know it's a Tim Burton film, so annoying is almost a given.

FYI- I don't think you are helping JumpToGamer.com's hit count with your posts
First of all, I requested the this not be brought up again but since you did I'll explain. Those posts are MY PERSONAL opinions NOT JumptoGamer's. Also, If you choose not to visit the site because you got butthurt by MY opinion then It's your loss. I guess I'll put a disclaimer next to my comment making people aware that these are MY opinions.

First off, I was referencing that mumbled mess of a post I quoted and the level of writing ability I could expect at JumptoGamer. Second, you can't just post/say/do whatever you want and follow it up with "please don't bring up what I said again" and everything will go away. That's not how the world works.
