I'm a Jillian, neverevereverever Jill. I blame my anti-Jill parents (who also made sure my brother was always Andrew, never Andy). It was especially annoying back in high school (okay, fine, and college and grad school), because I never felt comfortable repeatedly correcting teachers who called me "Jill." I just did the silent cringing part :-DJillian Schmidthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14421351338544997541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8457416499008334455.post-24629806866980753522011-03-16T10:46:15.417-07:002011-03-16T10:46:15.417-07:00Julia - my favorite dogs in the house are big dogs...Julia - my favorite dogs in the house are big dogs, but I love admiring the cute, tiny dogs :)Kris @Imaginary Readshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13550965344184687023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8457416499008334455.post-79315170215116340312011-03-16T09:47:06.095-07:002011-03-16T09:47:06.095-07:00I'm glad I can crack you up twister!I'm glad I can crack you up twister!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06519655950073446857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8457416499008334455.post-78951582304791186312011-03-15T19:05:25.142-07:002011-03-15T19:05:25.142-07:00I love this post it made me crack up!!! :o)I love this post it made me crack up!!! :o)AuthorTiffanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03451299601619856896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8457416499008334455.post-77585503877466079192011-03-15T14:56:29.900-07:002011-03-15T14:56:29.900-07:00Suey - yep, not too keen on the dentist.

It is like you're already my family. I hate food stuck at the bottom of the sink too. Thanks for the comment.

I think a lot about Oreos and chocolate and, oh, yeah, my kids...<br /><br />Nah, seriously, this was nice. I just added you on Twitter and saw that you added me, too--yay! New friends! I love the name Jules and have used it for a protag in a WIP just 'cuz I like it so much. And although I'm Jennifer, I've gotten Jessica and Rebecca quite often, and for a stage during my formative years, I was often called Jeffrey because the formative part took a long time to arrive. So I looked like a boy from age 11 to about 14. I like to think of it as more androgynous than anything...keep 'em guessing, I always say. :o)<br /><br />Looking forward to future posts! OH--I almost forgot--I HATE bad drivers, dead, mushy cereal left in the bottom of the sink, COOKING, and pretty much anything that has to do with food preparation (I'll eat, though, boy!). I LOVE daiquiri ice cream from Baskin & Robbins, American Oreos (Canadian Oreos blow), sleeping late, my blankie (my mom calls me Linus STILL, and I'm 39!!!), and my kids (there are 4 of them, little brats). And my cat. And my husband, too, I s'pose, to be fair. Thanks for asking! <br /><br />P.S. Beagles are ruled by their noses. We have one. She's a walking nose. Just so you're aware...<br /><br />(Find me at www.jennifersommersby.com)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06872373847253301822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8457416499008334455.post-91468007327389447782011-03-15T11:51:47.923-07:002011-03-15T11:51:47.923-07:00Jackie - I bet that is so annoying when people say...Jackie - I bet that is so annoying when people say your name wrong.

I've never known anyone who has the same disgust for it. <br />I have a different yet similar problem with my name. People insist on saying my name "Jacqueline" like jackalin. There is NO "K" in my name. <br />And I love getting random hugs from my three year old.

Secondly, my name would not be "short" for a name of the exact same length.<br />I especially like when people insist -- after I politely correct them -- that I am, in fact, wrong about my name.<br /><br />I agree with the pulp in orange juice thing (I don't want to have to chew when I'm drinking, thanks) and the sound I think is absolutely most hateful is when people chew with their mouths open. *shudder*<br /><br />Feeling so negative, I have to say one of my all-time absolute favorite things is a banana fritter recipe from a much-loved recipe book. I would choose those fritters over almost anything from any restaurant. . . they're that good. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8457416499008334455.post-46505424232081151092011-03-14T09:14:16.663-07:002011-03-14T09:14:16.663-07:00Stephanie - I remember sitting on the heater vent ...Stephanie - I remember sitting on the heater vent when I was a kid.

She doesn't mind :) (of course, she's six--maybe she'll feel more strongly about it later!). <br /><br />I hate the sound of someone squeaking a balloon, or similar noises. Yeek! I hate squash. Gag. <br /><br />I love the smell of rain. And sitting on the heating vent when the furnace is on.Stephanie Blackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08848784501386694887noreply@blogger.com
