Dear friends of mine. It has come to my attention that there’s a problem with purchasing something from My Market. And since I really do want those gifts, here’s my solution. If you have decided on an item in the market that you would like to claim, please comment anonymously on that item. Similar to the other registries, I may know it was purchased, but not by who. That way, you don’t have to worry about buying an item online with a sketchy return policy or that everyone buys a “Made in Korea” onesie (though if you all get different sizes, that’d be awesome).
And thats the last I’ll talk about buying me stuff. Cause its weird.

I’ve been daydreaming lately, about going to Korea, and coming home to a miraculously clean and shiny house. That while we were gone, some wonderful house cleaning people spent the day scrubbing and dusting and when I open the door, I can see its cleaner than the day we bought the place. The stove sparkles, the couch has been vacuumed, the bathrooms are gleaming and there’s not a single cat hair. Ahhh. How blissful would that be?
While a weekly house cleaning would be the best gift ever, I’d really just like a one time super professional cleaning to get things back on track. That would be awesome. I think I’ll go daydream about it some more.

I realized (just today, if you can believe) that Steve and I decided on Andrew James without ever knowing the meanings of those names. I suggested James to honor my Uncle Jimmy that passed away a few years ago, and since we didnt like it enough to be his first name, we began pondering names to go along with it. And eventually landed on Andrew. Just because it offers a variety of nicknames, and even the added bonus of AJ.
So, today, I looked up the names. And according to babynamesworld.com, Andrew means: Man, Warrior and James means: Supplanter. Yep. (I didnt actually know what supplanter meant, it doesnt seem to be a kind word… usurper: one who wrongfully or illegally seizes and holds the place of another. :O)
So, my child’s full name means: Man, Warrior, Supplanter, Long, Sky, Australia. So, if 30 years from now, you see a Korean kid taking over Australia, it could very well be my son. Uh-oh.

It wont be too long before AJ is walking. I’d like for him to do so in style.
