Election Judging

[sarahrose.livejournal.com]

So I was an election judge yesterday (which I find so fun and so patriotically rewarding, lol) and the best part of it (besides the great food that candidates bring us) is seeing everyone's names. The last names are even fun! We had mostly "normal" names, and then a few less normal ones, lol.

- Lalaquiesha (la-la-kwee-shuh) (f)
- Broc (rhymes with lock) (m)
- Maynird
- Dev (f)
- Minn (f)

(Of the above, I like Broc, but I would spell it with the K at the end if I were to use it at all, which I probably wouldn't, just because of my association with it - Titanic. I love Titanic and the character is fine and all, and I like Bill Paxton [even though he is affectionately one of my top two worst actors] but the association is just really strong to me. In a good day, but yet too strong.)


In our down times I was starting a new story and many of the last names on my character list were right out of the book! lol


It's a great job for a name enthusiast! ;-)

When I was 5 there was a Brock in my class. In our infinite wittiness we called him Broccoli.

It's still a nice name though. It's one of those names that seems really 'manly' to me.

I go by Dev sometimes. It's my pseudo-initials. Long story. But my actual initials are DBV, but I changed my middle name to Elizabeth when I was younger and that's how Dev came about. :)

I see Brock, I think pokemon.

The fact that you mentioned Titanic made my entire day.

One of the great loves of my life for almost nine years now!

Man, you should see my collection of memorabilia from the ship and film. I have some unique stuff. It was an obession for about five years. Now it's less of an obsession, but it's still a deep love of mine and very dear to my heart. I've only seen the film 99 times, though.
