What's in a name?

So... my future last name is...

wait for it...

...

Potter.

Can you freakin' believe it? When I tell people - they laugh - ask if his name is Harry. I know when I get pregnant everyone is gonna ask if we're gonna name the kid Harry. People at work started calling me Hermione.

Painful.

So JP (Future husband) send me these names we can name future children... Barry.... Larry ... Gary .... and...

Samwise...

I'm like Samwise? What's that.

Knowing JP - I know it's something nerdy - so I google it. It's the dude from Lord of the Rings who has to carry everything because poor precious Frodo has THE RING!!!

I can re-enact Lord of the Rings for you right here on the computer...

Sam: It's ok Frodo - I'll carry EVERYTHING!!! You just focus on the ring
(he is CLEARLY being sarcastic - but Frodo takes it literally)
Frodo: OH GOD!!! SOMEONE BAD IS COMING!!! *Drops sword, falls down*
Sam or Viggo (ME-OW) saves the day
Frodo: Oh God!! Bad Guy *Drops sword,falls down*
Sam or Viggo save the day
Frodo: Oh God!! Bad Guy *Drops sword,falls down*
Sam or Viggo save the day
And this goes on for HOURS... Like... Hours. I eventually fell asleep.

Embarassing side note: JP wanted his wedding band to be engraved to look like the Lord of the Rings ring...

Anyway - we are off to get married!!! As of Sept 21st I'll be MRS. POTTER!!! I may or may not be posting when I'm away - but I'll see yah in a week!!!

  1. OMG, you are too too funny! I fall asleep during "Lord of the Rings" also! A big congrats on your upcoming wedding, Mrs. Potter, huh? When I was growing up...Beatrix was the most famous Potter.

    My vote is for Samwise. That is a cool name. But, What if you have a girl child? Hmm...Harriet, perhaps?

    Happy Sat. SITS Sharefest!

  4. Congratulations, soon-to-be Mrs. Potter! Happy SITS Saturday Sharefest.

    I, too, am married to a man who enjoys things like The Ring, Star Wars, and anything on SciFi network (I categorically REFUSE to use the new 'SyFy' spelling!), so I feel your pain. Truly.

    Was it me or did Frodo also do an inordinate amount of crying? He lost his stones or never had any. Weepy little wimp. Oh, and I second the sentiment on Viggo (rawr!). He's scrumptious.

    Enjoy your honeymoon.
