Round Five: T minus 2.5 hours and counting...
DtD and the swim team are scheduled for 19:00.I've nested today. Scrubbed the entry way to the house. Mopped the floors. Made cookies. Made veggie enchiladas (minus the cheese, ::nods to damp spleen::) We're going for a walk at 17:00. I have new p.j. bottoms to wear tonight ($4.00 on sale, baby!). We're going to make lemonade when we come home. The sun is still shining. Life is good.
So, the NAME. This round will be hence forth known as...LOPEZ.
Why Lopez? It's from a Kids in the Hall skit (season one, episode 113). Mark McKinney spends an inordinate amount of time standing outside a house yelling the name "Lopez" to the point that you can't help but crack up.
Plus Washington State (Say WA?) is the home of Lopez Island in the San Juans, one of my favorite places to go. I spent a magical night on a sail boat anchored at Spencer Spit (on Lopez), watching the water sparkle with phosperescence.
Please welcome Lopez!

Good thing your favorite island isn't Orcas!! Go, swim team, go!
Go Lopez!
Drippy, goopy sperm = lovely!
Come on Lopez, don't let your mommys and all of their supporters down now ;o)
BTW, have you already enlightened us on what parenting names you are planning on using? We keep on looking for a non-mothering-but-still-kind-of-parenting name for my DP Karen. She doesn't want a mummy type name as she "won't be the mother" (her words, not mine), but we haven't yet found one that she likes. Some friends of ours use Meema for the non-bio mum (from Dykes to Watch Out For cartoon strip), which I think is fab, but it's too close for Karen.
Go SWIM TEAM, Go!!!!!!
Living la vida LOPEZ!!!!
YAY! Llllllllllllooooooopeeeeeeezzzzzzz!
Drippy and goopy? Even as a straight girl, that's a bit more description than I needed first thing in the morning. ;)
I've been lurking here watching your story, and cheering you on (but silently, so my co-workers don't think I'm insane). Best of luck this round. Go, Lopez, go!
And hey, if the sun hold, go walk around Greenlake! I finally made it out there yesterday, and it was wonderful. I love the season's first Greenlake walk.
Team Lopez is a great name! We LOVE that island as well. Go swimmers!
P.S. I can't e-mail you, but would you and M. like to check out a great GLBT link? www.walkfortogetherness.org. Jennifer Schumaker is a close personal friend and a lesbian mom of 4 walking for GLBT rights. She's getting hate mail recently and needs some more support and good vibes! Thanks for listening =)
swim, swimmers, swim!!!!!!!!
Nice! I didn't even know the Kids in the Hall had a following below the 49th parallel! Me thinks it's a good omen...
