Hi Everyone,

Talk to you all later!

I have no doubt that I have in the past. "freya" is the Anglicized version of "Freja" a norse goddess. I have always thought that Freya was a lovely name. My wife always like the name Cecily even more so when she found out that its root is from "Cecilia" the patron saint of music. My wife is a music fiend she sings , plays the guitar and recorder.

It's not every day you can get away with naming your real-life child after a PC. I originally wanted to call Ben Ray-O-VAC-4, but Jill shot that down.

When I was younger, someone I knew named her baby boy Thor Odin. Now that's hardcore Norse!

I used to live next to a guy in the dorms at UCI named Odin Ortega. Now that's hardcore Norse/Mexican!

Congratulations. I saw that Anne posted on Facebook the weight and sex of the child. Cool name though.



GEEK!



EDIT I went to school with a Tloc Quintana, named for the Maya rain god.

Tloc... How would that be pronounced? TEEloc? teLOC? Was the "t" silent?

Okay, so in the past four months, the fertile loins of RPG-SanDiego.org have produced three babies. That's enough for a GM and two players. When are we getting these kids together?

Congrats from Michelle and I. I could have sworn Emily wasn't that pregnant.. man the time flies.
Whenever I get confused about D&D alignment morality, I just imagine Abraham Lincoln and Mahatma Ghandi arm wrestling shirtless on the back of a killer whale.

In other words, I remember that it doesn't really make a whole lot of sense and deal with it best I can.

A baby-eating baby, from the sounds of it. Mike, when did you have a baby?



Love that dinosaur onesie, Sven!

Desmond was born just before Turkey Day in what appears to be the same hospital Cecily was born in. I recognize the swaddling blankets and fake-hardwood floors.

My wife was trying to name him Benjamin, but after I saw that Devlin had a Benjamin, I knew I had to convince her otherwise.

Wow, congrats! I had no idea.



So now that's enough for a GM and [i]three[/i] players....
