Opinions...Everybody's Got One...



Thanks to his Uncle Eric, the baby will probably still get called Thor, despite the desperate attempts by his mother to prevent such a sad thing. He has been littering my email with Thor pictures and warriors with weapons representing the legendary Thor. Attached is his latest project.

We went to dinner the other night with "so called" friends, who only added to Mr. W's plight to destroy the future of my baby.

Every normal name suggested was shunned, with options such as "Flash Burgundy" getting rave reviews. I was also told by Mr. W's friend, Jon, that he will be calling the baby Flash, regardless of what name we choose.

Good names were nudged out of the way for suggestions such as Spike, Gladiator, or Lui Kang and Raiden(from Mortal Kombat). Oh, it was an event filled with laughter for everyone with a beer in their hand. Mommy got to sit and endure the torture until deciding to join in on her own. I threw out some names such as "Mullet Nascar" and "Joe Dirt" before moving on to other great ideas like naming my poor child after hair band has beens from the 80s.

"Axl Rose W" and "Nikki Sixx W" and "Sebastian Bach W" were all thrown into the hat.

This started the group in new direction of naming the baby simply after someone who hit the media in the 80s. "Hulk Hogan W." , "Boy George W.", and Daddy's brilliant suggestion of "Sirhan Sirhan W."

When my poor little boy does have a name, he will have no idea of how many bullets he was able to dodge while sitting safely in the womb. On the other hand, how lucky this little baby is to have so many people interested in offering up a great name for him.

Mommy cannot wait until someone else is pregnant and she is having a cold one while coming up with her own creative responses.

On a side note, today is Mr. and Mrs. W's 1st anniversary. This is great news for Mommy and her son. It means they will be happily digesting a steak dinner tonight while avoiding the subject of names, altogether.

  1. I think there should be a law against fathers and friends naming a baby. My friends came up with "Francesca Gertrude" .. I'll join you for that beer :)
