Today Andrew and Jacob decided that they are now going to go by the names: Sacramento and Hollywood. They are little weirdos. Jacob has chosen the transgendered name of Hollywood, while Andrew has decided on the more stately Sacramento. They have been calling each other these names all day. It's grossing me out. I imagine people with bad breath in tank tops and tight cut off jean shorts carrying off names like those!
"Holly, is a woman's name, you know that right?" I asked Jake.
He looked at me like I was a complete idiot.
"It's Hollywood, not Holly, like where all the TV people live."
I assured him that I did in fact know where hollywood was and also that Hollywood by no means is a cool nickname. He disagreed. I told him that if they continue to go by these names I am calling him Holly. He was not amused. Sacramento I can tolerate, Hollywood not so much. I am hoping that by Monday they will no longer be calling each other these absurd names. I am not sure if the Midwest will tolerate it. I have signed them up for a sports day camp in Western Springs; at the same park where I spent countless summer days as a kid. I can only imagine what the normal, oatmeal eating, sweater vest wearing, Chicago suburban kids, will think of my two knuckle heads that are going by porn star names. I know already that my dad will find these new names hilarious. He will encourage it juct to bug me! All of the boy's antics crack him up. He thinks they are hilarious. We'll see how funny he finds them after spending three whole weeks of fun filled days with good old Sacramento and Hollywood.

And lastly my fancy new hair (which, by the way, is a terrible photo of Amelia and I but you can see the hair!) I no longer have hippie hair, hooray!
