Brady beat Sal and me in Wizard. It is a card game...like Euchre sort of, but much more thought-provoking. Last night, Casey, Sal, Randy and I were at Brady's and had a good time chatting, beating up the Big Fish, Lil' Fish (note the spelling) deck and playing Betrayal at House on the Hill (this is a fun game).

Plans are finalized! The rental place does noon to noon rentals only, so I have the truck Friday at noon to saturday at noon. This forces me to do Friday off of work and I will spend most of the day moving stuff on my own (though if you can POSSIBLY help...even after work, I would REALLY REALLY appreciate it). I have the super-heavy-duty appliance dolly with the stair-roller-thingys so we can do the washer, dryer, and anything else that may look heavy. I suppose it would be most responsible to say that we are meeting at the apartment at 8:30 on Saturday and we will move until 11:45 with the truck. That should give us plenty of time to get the stuff we need the truck for. Most of the little stuff can be gotten either way. Then we do the move stuff around the house thing and then Anne and the baby shower crew come to our house and we have a big party with movers and baby-ers.

Baby name guidelines:
1. Unambiguously female
2. Unambiguously spelled (if you cannot guess it on the first try, it is no good)
3. Cannot have "Anne" in it, because we don't want to play the "Big Anne, Lil' Anne" game.
4. Must not be on the list of most popular 100 names. We don't want her to have a name that everyone else has.
5. Must be transferrable into other languages with a minimum of problems. This is a loose requirement and I am not even sure of exactly what it means, other than I don't want our daughter to have a name (like mine) that is ineffable in Africa (well...Ghana, at least) and Spanish-speaking countries.
Those are the guidelines...now get those comments out there with baby names! Feel very free to post whatever names you want to, these are just fuzzy guidelines. The more names the better!
