"So I'll Have to Say I Love You in a Song..."

[psalm_onethirtyone]

What have I done since my last entry? Cleared up a good deal of my backlog, read some Edward Lear. Incidentally, Edward Lear is mad.

Here is the address for Sewanee: C/O John and Elizabeth Grammer (Oooh, that annoys me so much. My mind squeaks typo! typo!)
Sewanee Young Writer's Conference
University of the South
735 University Avenue
Sewanee, Tennessee
37383

...I've just realised. Because it's c/o mail, I have to let my real name be put on it. Oh, dear. *cringes*

Well! I suppose it's time to pull out this meme, then:

If you didn't know what my real name was, what would you name me?

Give me a name, and I'll tell you mine. ^_~

I already know your real name. *smug grin, not at all stalkerish, oh no, not me*

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

*giggles* Yes, you do. I'm going to ask the Grammers if they'll let me accept mail for Soujin, though, because my real name bothers me.

*oh, no, of course not. :P*

Mm... Candace. My super-awesome former neighbor was named that, and it'd suit you. Even though I know your real name, too. XD

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Really? Eee, Candace is pretty. I always think of candied chestnuts. Because I'm silly like that. ^_^

Yes, yes, you rock. *g*

Ellie. You are a very Ellie-ish person, all soft and cuddly and stuff. And if people called you Smelly Ellie, I'd hurt them very much.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Oooh. I very much like that.

I should love you for protecting my name--but don't hurt them too much, because violence for a Soujin's sake wouldn't be much smiled upon by the Pacifism Powers That Be.

....Charlene!

No. I hate that name.

Danielle? Mariette? Patrice...a?

It's really hard to think of you as anything but Soujin...

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

For what it's worth, in America Patrice is a woman's name... ^_~

Danielle is one of the names I always thing is so pretty, but it always makes me think of bananas, for some reason.

It's hard for me to think of me as anything but Soujin, too. ^_^

[julietveiled.livejournal.com]

The truth comes out - of all his secrets, this is the deepest - Bossuet is a woman! LA aigle! ... except it'd still be L'aigle, so that annoys me. hrm.

You look like someone who could be named Danielle, but you'd be Dannie or Ellie for short. Something curly, cute and fluffy, but with the potential to be longer and more sleekly elegant.

...so what IS it? Huh? Huh? Now I'm curious!

Empress Griselda the Bloody, Scourge of the Solar System.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Ooooh. It's got a ring to it, all right.

[bewareofitalics]

(Hee! John and Elizabeth!)

And I would name you... hm. I'm still stuck thinking of you with my own messed-up pronunciation of Soujin, how could I ever come up with something totally new? *g*

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

(...You're right!)

*giggles* Oh, come now. I demand you come up with something.

[fish-bananas.livejournal.com]

Little Bird.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

*squees!*

[sansenmage.livejournal.com]

Could it be Mary Sue?

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Oh, that's cruel. I'm wounded, milady.

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

Ooooh, but you're Soujin.

*ponders* Names for you... I'm thinking Hunter. I couldn't say why. It's strong, and fierce, and... green, and yet there's a... I don't know. A sort of skirts-blowing-in-the-wind romanticism. I've never known anyone with this name. My brother-in-law's little brother is friends with a Hunter... and I picture her a poet, with grey eyes... and a sort of sad gaze...

So yes. My odd six-AM brain says Hunter.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

^_^ I know! That's how I feel, also!

Oooooh. You've enchanted me. Thank you so much.

Kind OT...

[settiai]

You know, I'm half-tempted to drive out to Sewannee and say "hi!" while you're there. *grin* I mean, it's only an hour and a half's drive...

Re: Kind OT...

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Do it do it! ^________^ I'd love that!

[dame_grise]

I almost went to college there. I remember the touring it the summer before my senior year in high school. It was right before they changed the name.

Nice campus.

And darn you, Soujin, for making me cry with all these Jim Croce references lately. Photographs and Memories has made me bawl ever since I first separated from my husband.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Really? My uncle works there--I understand it's a fairly nice place, except for the mosquitoes. ^_^

I'm glad you think so.

! I'm sorry! If you'd rather I didn't, I'm certain I can find other things to make subject lines with.

I've been thinking and thinking... Carrie, I think. Because it's a pretty, warm kind of name and... I don't know. I have trouble explaining my names. But Carrie.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Ooh, I like Carrie. It always makes me think of cats, and in a good way. ^_^ I can't explain things quite properly either; but thank you.
