The Name Game

I am back from New York which I will write about later this week�it was a good week but LOOOONGGG.

I would like to thank the 2 loyal readers, Dansting and JMcG who sent me email-it�s nice to get feedback. I started this a few weeks ago because I had been reading Dansting�s fabu blog for a while and thought it was a super cool idea. Thanks for the feedback Dansting.

Also to my pal JMcG, thanks for the name suggestions which I will include below:

Mike and Jessica Burns-CD�s

Tom and Jessica Burns-Calories

Jeffrey and Jessica Burns-Inhell

William Nelson Phillip and Jessica Burns-Money III

Ronnie and Jessica Burn-Out

I think we also need to add Jessica Burns-Rubber. Although I really do like the nickname JBu, so maybe I should just keep my last name on the next swing. It�s caught on much unlike Jesster which I have tried to kickstart. It hasn�t really been popular despite the fact that I like it.

I read the book The Divinci Code last weekend. It was the best book I have read in a long time. Being a Catholic school girl, there was a lot of thought provoking things in it, although I realize it is fiction�I give it 2 thumbs up.

As you may know, one of my pet peeves is when people don�t return phone calls. You may also know that I have a tendency to take everything very personally, which I am trying to work on. Really. No, really. Well ok, I am not doing as well as I should but I am getting better. So, I was a little irritated that my former co-worker did not call me back in Vegas. However, after a discussion with my pal-slash-portal to the minds of male thinking- Michael, who stated �if I was on a guy�s weekend, I wouldn�t have called you either� or something to that effect. So now, I have removed my undies from the knot that they were in. and that feels much better. And I know that I should never expect a return call from Mike on a guy�s weekend.

As promised, here is my running list of baby names. Yes, these are the actual names of babies:

Socrates Xavier

Mitzner Mitzner (no I am not making that up)

Josiehanna

Serenity Diviana

Bruce Wayne (first and middle names---who's his dad-Batman?)

Xzavier (good alternative spelling)

Thatcher Warren Kezer IV

Pandora Nefertiti

Summer Rayn

Dayton Ace (a boy) (sounds like a minor league baseball or an indoor soccer team)

Kyden Dathan (say it out loud-it sounds like you need adenoid surgery)
