Way back in 1995, my Aunt Carolyn, not to be confused with Aunt Karol, who was missing my blog…
Hey - did you know I have an Aunt Karol and an Aunt Carolyn? In fact, my grandparents had three sons (and a daughter) and two of them married a Carolyn, and one a Karol.
And did you know that my grandpa’s name was Herb and two of his daughters married men named Herb?
And I have an Aunt Patty Long and an Aunt Meredith Short?
And my sister married a man named Robert. And our dad is named Robert. And her father-in-law is named Robert. And her son’s name is Robert.
And you people wondered why I had such a hard time naming my children?
Well, that’s just great. I’m completely distracted now. I never put all of that together at once. Now this is a post about family names, so I’ll have to tell you the story about my Aunt Carolyn another time.

Yes I understand now why it took so long to pick out your names!!!
By the way, my grandpa's name is Herb as well! Just incase you wanted to know that!
It's good to know that someone else can get a bit, errrr, ummm, sidetracked while typing away. I generally say to myself, "Hey, I'll write a post about our outing to ___." Then I end up talking about undies and drool.
you're too funny...
