I would post the other categories, but I am sure I have already put you all to sleep. ;)
Thank you for sharing. I don't follow theater but try and at least have a vague idea of what's current, your post at least keep me from being too ignorant on the subject:joyfull:

*watches another terror movie... ruined with horrible and illogical sense*

I mean, seriously.. character A (the leader) is screaming "EVERYONE BE QUIET, LETS BE SILENT AND STEALTHY TO DODGE THESE MONSTERS"

They are all screaming, rustling non stop and all of them with turned on military grade lights... :banghead:
To make it worse.. they all had 4 x 4 bikes behind them, turned on.. with the lights turned on as well... :bored:

And then they wonder "HOW DID THEY FIND US" GEE IDIOT.. IF YOU WERE A BIT LOUDER, PERHAPS EVEN THE CORPSE OF GENERAL WASHINGTON COULD HAVE HEARD YOU. :hilarious:

Both of my kids have popular names and go by nicknames though both professionally now use their full names, not on purpose but it what is what they went to the businesses with and awkward to say but I go by....and then it sticks.

I have always gone by my middle name once I had a say in it, friends early on in life started it and it stuck. I don't care for my first name and my Mom thought it was cool to spell it oddly which has always made me repeat the proper spelling, quires as to why I spell it that way (like I had a choice) I understand it was my Moms second choice. Gran (her MIL) objected to the first, being Catholic and my Mom picking first a more Jewish name Gran had a meltdown. I guess when naming my kids I put some though into 'normal' names that would work throughout time though some on the table for both were fun. I just didn't know if they would appreciate fun.

My Mom didn't like the name my Sis picked for my niece (niece has 3 last names for her first, middle and last name) just made up her own name for her new Grandaughter and to this Day is what she calls her. People are really funky about names.

I have a nephew with a real old fashion name that has dogged him. His family wanted to honor a loved relative by naming him that. The parents got brownie points within the family for their thoughtfulness and the kid just grew up being mocked.

I like that you put thought into the kids names.

And, since we're discussing family names . . . here's a classic. ;)

I remember that!

We moved my DD into her apartment. Second story but a tall second story with one heck of a steep staircase. I deemed that day I was old. My son has moved and lived many places and states. He was always on the third floor. One time it was just he and me moving out, he was the last one to move from that apartment. We left a newer but not flat screen TV behind on the outside walkway. I couldn't do it, try as I did. When he moved to his current place, no roomies and got all new furniture we had it all delivered. He was even done at his age of hauling furniture up staircases.

In my young adult life I moved 5 times in 6 years. In the 4th place our first house I knew quickly I wasn't going to stay there. I didn't unpack half the stuff. We bought a different home a year later and I can remember promising myself I was never going to move again. I don't like moving anyone. I do but I don't like it.

Moving is hell. Done it many times. Hate it.
