I can TO...<i>requests for help with naming characters</i><br /><br />I can TOTALLY help with that. Having studied onomastics for 20+ years, it really grates on me when novel or movie characters have unrealistic names.<br /><br /><i>Now - tell me... what surname goes well with Martha? </i><br /><br />What is her age and social class? Is she American or British? Or German? These will all make a big difference.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2075858460867483977.post-14467467718939556462014-02-28T21:20:25.275+00:002014-02-28T21:20:25.275+00:00Mayer :)

I saw something on FB asking if you liked hushpuppies (which you will, trust me) and I wondered if a trip was in the works! Details please!! Layovers in Minneapolis??? You can visit my Habasha twins and not have to do a thing towards raising them! Doesn't that sound dreamy!?<br />Kat & Stacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06771223055953137126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2075858460867483977.post-77410755888096642162014-02-28T18:34:04.545+00:002014-02-28T18:34:04.545+00:00Stewart, haha... ;-)

That way you can invent a mysterious back story. All bodice ripping heroines have a mysterious back story.<br /><br />Very, very, sorry about Jay. Very, very excited about you coming to the US in June! (is it true? To which coast?) You might have to put in an appearance at my book club!!! How exciting!!! And ps, didn't Jay also promise you a pair of diamond earrings for being such a lovely wife? <br />I thought so too. ;-)Casa Bicicletahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01877164617383384452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2075858460867483977.post-86729345661493747122014-02-28T12:46:46.645+00:002014-02-28T12:46:46.645+00:00Is Martha Irish?

But guess what we called her? Mrs. Pickle. I mean, duh, we were seventh graders.<br /><br />I'm also fond of anything ending in worth.<br /><br />I hope everything only gets better from here for Jay, or that at the very least, the hospital parfaits are as delicious there as they are here. It's never fun to have someone you love endure surgery and recovery, but a good Oreo, chocolate pudding, and questionable-whipped-cream-substance parfait makes it all more bearable.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09098391747911095350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2075858460867483977.post-82947732258300721022014-02-28T01:19:36.404+00:002014-02-28T01:19:36.404+00:00Hayward, Feinstein, _______well.

And thanks for making me feel a little better about melting down over a $900 car repair bill, a non-specified full-body rash on my DH and being so generally disorganized that something as simple as getting a haircut has eluded me for two months. So.
