Pfft. It's "am-itch" and "am-ith." Though sometimes, for no known reason, it's "Amy chuh."
And I just realized that I'm now so used to swapping board names with real names, and that some people have cycled back and forth between the two so often, that in Scrappy and Lee's cases I don't even know for certain which ones they're currently using and it doesn't matter; both sets of names are so deeply embedded in my brain that I automatically "read" both no matter which one actually shows up on screen. My lack of confusion is deeply confusing to me.
Though sometimes, for no known reason, it's "Amy chuh."
I've always used this pronunciation.

Me, too. Although the "-uh" part of "chuh" is swallowed a bit.
Exactly. High-fives Steph.
Me: Just a moment...I'm sorry, the person you need to speak to is [Mgr of Payroll], but she is away from her desk at the moment. Would you like to leave her a voicemail?
How much did you enjoy saying this?

sometimes this, some times Amy C-H.

It's always "aim-ick" and "aim-ith", clearly.

Probably way more than I should have.
Okay, so tomorrow is the 5-year anniversary of my back surgery. Seriously. Five years. And I still haven't gotten tired of talking about it.
What I really want, to commemorate it, is a vertebra. Preferably a cast model, rather than the nifty rubbery models that doctors have to show their patients where exactly all the pain is originating.
So I found The Bone Room. I can get a cast of a vertebra for $5, or....an actual human vertebra for $20.
Would it be utterly creepy and ooky to get a real human vertebra?
They have nifty jewelryas well, including earrings made from mink penis bones (scroll down).
They also have capybara skulls (scroll down).

Only if you try to pass it off as your own.
