that i use for so many things. an alter ego, a song by staind. it has so many forms and functions, i’m utilizing it as my new ID. think the government will accept it?
and by the way, my kid’s alter ego? isobel. which was name number two on our list of girlie names, back when i was convinced it was going to be a kiddo with indoor plumbing and he was convinced it’d be outdoor plumbing.
the boy’s name? ugh, destined for playground tomfoolery, i think. hayden. can’t you just hear the taunts? “gay-den! gay-den! dresses like a maiden.” yup, so glad we got a girl.
so let’s get a few things out of the way, kay?
- no more of the former nickname or real-life name for me!
- i won’t be linking to any of my past stuff or to other sites with my real name associated with it.
- i am going to pimp the new site that i’ve been talking about for weeks, hardcore. meaning, i’ll still be doing the daily grind here, but my heart, my sweat and my intimate caresses will go towards the new one. which you’ll be told about when it launches (late. because of switches in hosting).
- i’m assuming that my network blog gig will be up. but i’m cool with it and honestly, even if it’s not, i’m going to quit. it’s a little too instable for me, i could be being instable on my own, ya know? it just means that i can move the content to the new (pimpin’) site and that i’ll have more time/less strict posting requirements. so yay, me for getting fired!
now, i’ve got to get some sleep. because some fuckwads have moved in beneath me, that have consistently woken isobel (see? ha! it’s fun to play pretend) and therefore i’ve not been able to finish the work i must have done prior to 6pm tomorrow, i must now get up at 6am to ensure that i get it all finished without having to park isobel in front of repeated dora and diego viewings.

My niece’s name is Isobel, spelled the same way & all. So there’s your first comment & a super interesting one at that! (:

I love the name Isobel.
Damian was going to be Isabella’s name cause I thought she was a boy.
I dreamt of her name when I was 8 weeks preggy. So technically she named herself. Cause I was calling her Damian up until she was born. Weirdness.
