A sucker for the heartbeat

Hi there :)

So - a lot of the discussion on Ctown's editorial thread about why people leave the game or stay with it have got me thinking about my own situation, and why I haven't been around very much for a while.

Not the bit about how my mail is pre-screened by a german shepard who answers to the name of Rufus and still gets paid more than I do.

Not the bit about how there's a video of me on Youtube giving a dirty Sanchez to an anorexic spider monkey named Bella.

Not the bit about how I managed to become an ambidextrous funkslinger and defeat a naughty sorceress repeatedly on another game called Kingdom of Loathing.

And not even the bit about how most of the people I used to talk to just up and left.

These would all be good reasons, but none of them are mine. Mine is about 15 weeks old, lives in the protective umbrella of Missus Patty's' tummy and makes my eyes well up every time I hear his or her heart beating, faster than a meth-freak drummer with carpal tunnel syndrome and jackrabbits for parents. But it's really about the heartbeat - the closest thing my kid has right now to speaking in the world.

So there you have it. I've sort of had my priorities shifted of late, and although I miss you all, I really have no idea when I'll have the kind of time to jerk around on the internet that I used to have. I promise I'll try my best from time to time, even if I NEVER figure out whether I have milk ducts in my man-breasts.
My love,
N

For a boy - Hunter Braxton - Ive always loved the name Hunter..and call him Hunt for short. This is actually what I was going to name my boy if I had kids of my own, which I wont so...that was the boys name.

Second boys name - Cody James. Again, just loved the name Cody...and the James was after my Dad's name. I was going to even add my Dad's middle name into it, and have it be, Cody James Everett...sounds kind of outlawish lol Cody James is just a neat name, I think. It has a nice ring to it.

For a girl, Madison Paige.....or Makayla L'oreal (pronounced L'oreal).....I just find them very pretty, and unique. No other reason :)

Not doing this to try for a free sub....just sharing names :)

Good luck with finding the right names :o)

Congratulations on the great news, Crunch! I have a challenge for you. When I named my little one, the registry actually called me back to ask where I found the name and what it meant. They were satisfied with my answers, and my kid now has a truly unique name (only two syllables, unlike some Hollywood kids'...) I have an unusual name myself, and I have never regretted my parents choice. There's been some funny situations with tickets and such, but that is only an advantage if you have a sense of humor :-) Here's some names to get your imagination started:

I guess you are preparing to meet with miss Patty's internal astronaut soon. Good luck to all three of you!
