Who are you? Who who?

MaryF is talking about naming characters and I realized mine have rather unusual names for the most part. Of course, some of them I knew were a little odd. But others I hadn’t given much thought about.

My heroines:

  • Annabeth, Athena, Carly, Cassie, Ceara, Dania, Darcy, Dasher, Delia, Harriet (how old-fashioned can you get?), Aliane, Cherry, Gabrielle, Jaylie, Kerry, Jenny, Jackie, Hayley, Madison, Jessie, Josie, Kacey, Kat, Kate, Kelly, Claire, Nicki, Raven, R.J. (short for Robin Janine), Stacy, Tate, Taylor, Perry, Verilyn, Evangeline, and Alexandra

    • The heroes:

  • Jack, Simon, Brett, Jeremy, Keller, Kit, Ford, Dirk, Kyle, Sam, Dillon, Cameron, Dunstan, Drake, Mark, Kieran, Alex, Zack, Max, Kevin, Diego, Harry, Rex, Tony, Tristan, Nick, Stefan, Julien, Vraden, and Duncan

    • One thing I’ve noticed, too, is I’ve duplicated some first names. Hmm. Oh well. :lol: I also have a LOT of librarian heroines. Gosh, you’d never guess that my library jobs were my favorites, would you? :rofl:

    Today’s horoscope:

    Monday, August 29, 2005

    Inexplicable fluctuations in your popularity wreak havoc on your best-laid plans. (What?!?! I wouldn’t mind if I got more popular, but somehow I don’t think that’s what they mean. :SOB!!!:) The agenda of a bossy partner or former friend now in charge is likely to remain the way things are done despite your innovative solutions. (Must be at that non-existent job they talked about yesterday. :rofl:)

    Blowin’ in the wind

    Well, Hurricane Katrina wasn’t as bad as she could have been, but even so she was a pretty bad girl. They’re predicting thunderstorms (and we’ve had quite a bit of rain today) and fairly high winds for us tonight and tomorrow (20 to 30mph). :relieved:

    Picked up my new glasses today. They’re called “Savvy” I discovered. Will they make me more savvy, I wonder? Or just cute? I’d settle for cute. LOL.

    I decided to live dangerously yesterday and sent the first 300 words of one of my stories to Miss Snark so she could run it through her CrapOMeter. :rofl: I’m nervously awaiting the results…
