A recent name game conversation:
Me: I like the name Jacoby.
Jesse: That sounds ignorant.
Me: Ignorant? What?
Jesse: Yes. Ig ig. (We tend to find the oddest ways to doubreviate things--double abbreviate)
Me: It most certainly is not ignorant. We can call him Coby for short.
Jesse: My child will not be called Kobe. (Of course he has to bring a sport reference to the table. This is my husband after all.)
Me: Well what about Colby? Colby Cooper Jerle. CCJ.
Jesse: I knew a Colby. He was 400 hundred pounds and everyone called him Cheese.
(30 seconds later)
Me: Ohhhhh. I get it. Like as in Colby Cheese.
As for the moving. We are completely moved out of the Inglewood compound. But we continue the unpacking at the new abode. It seems endless. I swear I threw away a whole ton of shiz before leaving. But apparently not enough. Every box I open? Mooooore shiz. Go figure. I did, however, manage to sell or give away all of our furniture but our bed. We didn't really have nice stuff. Lots of hand me downs. We were basically at a furniture status above that of a frat house. So now we have no furniture. Which is only slightly worse than what we had before. I have been perusing Craigslist. Because that's where grown ups go to shop for furniture, right? Exactly. Nobutseriously. We went to some legit furniture stores and everything was so not my scene.
It's time for dinner. A late dinner.
Jesse: Do you want pizza rolls or just pizza?
Me: Probably just pizza since we had pizza rolls last night.
Jesse: We should probably go grocery shopping.
Me: Yeah. Maybe. But I am probsbly not getting off this bed tonight.
Ohhhh and finally. Kristen over at Whiskey Tango Foxtrot (the very first person to ever ask me to guest post) made me this little side by side comparison of Bobo and Doby from Harry Potter. The resemblance is uncanny, no?

OMG. Seriously with the pizza. That Iz and me pretty much every single day. It's ridiculous.
And Bobo totally looks like Dobby. Maybe he's really a house elf?
haha we play the baby name game all the time. what fun! one of my friends has a dog named colby - and there was a guy on survivor named colby too. :)
anyway, love the pizza roll convo. that's us over here sometimes too. mmmm. love pizza. and pizza rolls. oo and pizza bagels!
I am dying at the furbaby Doby. So funny.
We play the Name Game as well. Not pregnant either, but its fun!
Ice Cube's "INGLEWOOD" just got stuck in my head. LOL
I've told the boyfriend that our future daughter will have my first name and his last name. (Clearly I'm keeping my maiden name). We haven't gotten around to thinking of boy's names, but I'd like a family name.
Also I make myself Triscuit pizza for lunch or dinner almost every day.
UMMMM...excuse me!!! I have asked you a hundred times and you never have. Hmph.
Brandon and I don't like ANY of the same names. Our child will be nameless.
I think Inglewood is a whole different place here in Socal. Haha.
I think every time I hear the name Colby now, I'm going to think of cheese.
Jacoby is a sports name too...Boston Red Sox.
And I LOVE shopping on Craigslist :) Gotta be patient but I like getting deals. Let other peeps pay full price...suckas!
I love your name conversation. Your husband has super good points there although I love how creative your names were. I would never name my child after a person who reminds me of something that I don't want to be reminded of. And that picture made my life.
lol aw I love the Doby comparison. So cute. D and I talk about baby names too. Not weird at all :) We have agreed on a girl's name but I fear for a boy because D is apparently obsessed with Russian and Finnish names. Maximilian, Anatoly...we're not Russian :S
LOL. I love when you post conversations between you and Jesse because I can picture your facial expressions, tones of voice, and everything else. Hysterical! If you did have a Colby you would def need to make his middle name Jack. Colby Jack Jerle! Ha.

I love your last conversation about the pizza vs pizza rolls :)
The picture of Bobo and Doby is HILARIOUS!!! A case of separated at birth, for sure.
