The number one question I am asked, once people find out we’re expecting, is, “When are you due?” The answer to this, as I’ve said previously, is, sometime around Christmas. The second most popular question is, “Do you have names picked out?” The answer to this is, yes, but we’re not really telling people what they are yet. The reason for that? Larry’s two sisters-in-law are pregnant. One is due in June, and one in July. I’m telling you, I’ll be damned if they’re going to take our names. I know it sounds silly, but you have to understand, Larry and I don’t like hardly any of the same names. Now that we’ve found a few that we like, we don’t want to ruin it by having either of the sisters-in-law steal the ones we like. So, we’ve come up with an answer when people ask…we’ve done this mostly because it’s fun…we’ve been telling them that we like the name Gargamel or Gargamella if it’s a girl. You ought to see the looks! Let me tell you, there’s no, “oh…I like that…it’s cute…” with Gargamel! I’ll share the names we actually like…after those other two have their babies…can’t take any chances…although if one of them picks Gargamel, I might feel bad…
