odd(s)
what are the chances that S's brother and his wife would name their newborn baby girl the same very unusual name as my long dead sister.
I'm not close to them, so as far as I know they're not aware I have a dead sister.
I hadn't thought about her in a long time until this morning when we heard about the new baby.
I never really knew my two half sisters. my mother wouldn't allow it.
"I don't want my girls growing up like you!"
She should have been more careful what she wished for.

It's not you. It's them. Absolutely. Them.
About Me
- Name: dodo
- Location: London, United Kingdom
Recently reclaimed by PR industry after more recent background in lobbying and, before that, business journalism. From London and working part time in city but living in sticks. Trying not to pass on to my daughter all that my mother kindly left me. Raging against inevitability. Getting better at it. or not. NEED to rewrite this to say i'm not working at the moment and that there's all kinds of neds stuff going on, but to do that seems really official and final, so a postscript will have to do.
