Good!  :) (PDA arriving today, yay!) Just to get things clear...how do you 
feel about Snape?
And which ship are you captain of?

When my first daughter was born, the name Jordan was popular for boys, but 
not girls.  So we named her Jordyn, thinking that it was sufficiently 
unusual.  Apparently everybody in the South had the same idea, because out 
of 27 kids in first grade last year, six were named some variation of 
Jordan--one boy, five girls.  At least she was the only one with a "y".
