Laura ELAINE - 2004-12-10 21:14:42
I save some of your stories for later, when I really need them and, damn it, I like this one!! I do disagree with this: "Do parents across this great land realize that the middle name has one purpose and one purpose alone: To be terribly embarrassing." Laura Elaine - have you not noticed, is a lovely first and middle name coupling. Now, Johnson is so overdone that I often dismiss it entirely and simply use the Laura Elaine part. I love my name. My parents carefully chose a name that is not entirely too out there, is old fashioned and has sentimental value. My mother's mother's (she died when my mother was 18 and therefore I do not call her Grandma) name was Elaine and my great Grandmother's name was Laura. It is beautiful and I adore it absolutely. Besides, it's better than Carl, which might have been my name if I were a boy...
