Jayne ,'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
We have one hyphenate who actually wants to be treated as if the first name of her hyphenate is a middle name, so she is alphabetized by her second name. I don't know why, makes no sense, not my biz.
The friends I have who do this don't hyphenate the names they just use both. So Jane Smith Jones would be alphabetized as "Jones" and Jane Smith-Jones would be alphabetized under "Smith."
Alphabetization is not a preference issue. There are rules, people!
Or what she said.
Well, I was joking, because technically you are supposed to follow personal preference. But, assuming she's a hyphenate due to marriage, I don't know why you would make things more complicated for yourself.
I have hung up and put away ALL THE CLOTHES! megan walker, wanna come to Texas and make me purge?

See, I read this and I wonder, does she expect every place that has her name to add an additional field to their database tables to accommodate this?
That is so tempting. I'm still bitter that my Hot Springs jaunt got cancelled due to snow in Dallas.
Well, the middle of the summer is probably not the best time, but you are always welcome and damn do I need to reduce the amount of clothes I have.
And I want to meet mac!
you say that now.
I kid, I kid.
He just talked back and yelled at me in front of the playdate. NOT ON.
I really do need to start up that organizing business one day.
megan, you can come up here and make me purge!! I so need to--but right now it's a matter of "but I WILL fit everythign again...soon...um...." since half my clothes don't fit. Grr.
