Name
Apr 7, 2004

My parents being the people they are wanted to give me a name that wouldn't give the other ankle biters at school amunition, and they succeeded. I mean Katharine, can't turn it into a rude word or anything (not in English anyway, don't know about other languages). But what my parents did do was chose to spell it in a way that only about 2 other people in the whole world do so I spend the whole time appearing really pedantic. Oh well could be worse, people could smirk every time they see my name because my surname's Slater...

I do actually like my name I'm just feeling a bit headachey at the moment and not really inclined to be nice to smirkers.

My Bed
Aug 14, 2001

Sometimes when I wake up I feel my body fall back onto the bed.

Other times it feels like the bed jumps a couple of feet to the side but when I look it hasn't moved.
