Its 3:30am and I have a car picking me up in an hour. I'm flying to San Francisco this morning to visit my stores on the West Coast. I'll be gone til Wednesday night so I probably won't post anything until late next week. I'm hitting LA at the tail end of my trip and will be able to see some old pals of mine. Doctor's ok'd the trip and I'm very much looking forward to it.
James and I have already decided on a name for our little girl: Lily Nobuyo Townsend. Lily, because I've always loved that name and it also happens to be the name of James' great aunt, who passed away a few years ago. She was actually the first relative of James' I've ever met. She was the angel who let us sublet her apartment on 30th & 3rd back in 1999 for a mere $760! And it was a real one bedroom with a view. I cringe when I think of the amount of $ we could've saved had we not moved to LA. But we had an amazing run with it and it was our time to move on. Nobuyo happens to be my mom's name (who is my ultimate hero) and my middle name, too. It means "faith" in Japanese. I think it's beautiful. Growing up, I hated it (especially when every other girl had a simple name like "Ann" or "Sue" or "Lenore" (sorry Heather...), and I was trying to fit in in a mainly Caucasian neighborhood. But I grew to love it (and my differences) and so will Lily.
Gotta run.
