Baby Names

So maybe I got a little bit bored... these are fun sites at any rate:

Social Security Administration Name Statistics (and you can view by state): http://www.ssa.gov/OACT/babynames/index.html
Name Voyager (this is really cool!): http://babynamewizard.com/namevoyager/lnv0105.html

Oh, Mother!

My brief conversations with my mother over aspects of Mormonism just seem to get funnier as time passes. Today it was:

Me: "Mormons do believe in the second coming, too."
Mom: "Haha, ya, but of who? Not Jesus."
Me: "Um, yes, of course Jesus! Mormons believe in the Bible."

I really had no idea that my mom was that ignorant. I didn't realize her impressions of Mormonism were that skewed. Arg. Frustrating. But hey, it was also a nice source of twisted comic relief.

Oh, Kaity!

Kaity and I were going through boxes and boxes of old medical charts for hours and recording names, chart #s, and DOBs. We entertained ourselves with crazy, weird, and stupid names and mathematically cool birthdays. This resulted in the following conversation:

Kaity: "I was born on a Monday."
Me: "I was born on a Monday too."
Kaity: "That's probably why we're friends!"

Haha. I wonder which of my other friends have birthdays on Mondays... hmmm...

You Look Like...

I came into a conversation my mom was having with my little sister who wanted to go out in a mini-skirt, high heels, a white tank top, curled hair, big fly sunglasses and basically looking like she was asking for sex. So the conversation goes on, I add my two cents that I think parents who let their kids where mini-skirts, and the people who make mini-skirts should be shot and that I would like to burn T's mini-skirts, not just ask her to change. Maybe I'm a little too intolerant--you can decide.

At any rate, the conversation goes on and it's got a humorous side to it that goes something like this:

Me: "You look like you're asking for sex."
T (thinks for a minute): "Ya, well, umm, you look like a MORMON!"
Me: "Hahaha. I'm not nearly as offended by that as you would like me to be."
T: "Well, if I were you I'd be offended."
Me: "Haha."

It was bizarre, as most conversations in my family go. Ah, the amusement. :)
