Choices, choices.

Last night, while driving home, I decided what I was going to do for my little niece-let. I really have been dying to make something for her, something unique from me. For a period of time I was going to make her a quilt. Seeing as I actually can sew and do know how to quilt.

Of course that requires time and labor.

But then it hit me what I enjoy doing that yes, takes time, but is easier for me than sewing: writing. So I'm writing her her own fairy tale. My conundrum is this: what to name the main character. So I searched the meaning of my little bug-let's name, and here's the list of contenders in the naming category.

Armelle
Brinly
Tiana
Zariel

Because, of course, fairy tale names have to be exotic and unique. But have special meaning. I like the sound of Brinly, but Zariel isn't just Princess, it's Lion Princess. Very strong name, that one.

So, any notions, ideas, opinions on which is better?

Woo! Hoo! Quotes!

I'm jumping on the movie quote bandwagon. Work? Who needs to do no stinkin' work. Wait, is that a bad usage of a movie quote? I have no clue what it's from. And I plan on adding a few TV quotes, because I feel like it. Yeah, that's right. You wanna stop me? *g*

Anyway...

1. Oh yeah? Clap.

2. I make this look good.

3. That was so five minutes ago. (And I defend myself by adding that I used this at the time the movie was released, not today.)

4. Luau!

5. You've got me? Who's got you? (Tara also had this one, but it's a damn great quote.)

6. Nothin' I like better than a nice piece of ass.

7. Your husband is a boil on the butt of humanity.

8. My colors are blush and bashful.

9. Just tease it until it looks like a brown football helmet.

10. You can have t-shirts made that say "I hit Ouiser Boudreax!"

11. It looks like two pigs wrestling under a blanket.

12. Tawanda!

13. Bored now.

14. Young blushing virgin, fair and fresh and sweet. Whither away and where is they abode?

15. Her colors are pink and pink.

16. One is a much deeper shade of pink.

17. It looks like we hosed down the church with Pepto-Bismal.

18. We have pink bunting draped over anything that doesn't move.

Okay, work is calling again. But pretty much a synopsis of half of this list, and most of the quotes I use is:

Mave holds of video tape. See this tape? It's called Steel Magnolias. It's the best quoting movie ever. It's my movie Bible. So I haven't seen it in six months. No biggie. Name a scene. Any scene. I'll quote it. With the correct accent to boot.
