I cannot breathe, I'm laughing so hard.
And leave it to Martha to be the one with the balls to ask.
Wow, that was so worth it.

Ha ha ha-ha-ha. Suckers.
God forgive me, I love how uncomfortable some of you must have been for a while there.
I have to admit. I know the real name. But having read this, I had to immediately call Annie first thing this morning for an explanation, because, could she really go that far with a joke? Glorious.
The best part is that Dad called from the ship to complain.
tex from mike this morning:
"whose baby is that on annie's post?"
and a few minutes later when the name was brought up:
"i didn't want to say anything cause i figured you throw a fit, but my aunt sheila is so ugly"
When you're incommunicado for a few days, and then at 1 in the morning, coming up the bay you log on and see that picture... Well I have to say it was an initially awful shock. I mean, does my new granddaughter really look like a miniature Serbian suma wrestler?
I quickly realized what was going on, and then saw Shieia! A wella-wella, as someone once said. We have a special stainless steel cleaner on board called sheila-shine. And that's what immediately came to mind. Don't know that I ever knew a Sheila. Don't know that I want to.
I must say, Annie, you should think of your poor old father's heart.
Mary saying the name was "gorgeous" should have tipped all of you off. Fools!
and I kept telling Lisette that this was the clincher...Mary's comment. And she kept saying, "I don't know, I don't know, Mom"
When Martha called and said, "Sheila?!", we both said "EEWW" together, after I stopped laughing.
Om My Annie...it's pay back time one of these days, that's for sure.
(And notice that Nora made NO comment about the names. I mean, what could one say???
I'm DYING! I was just telling Sean how my gag reflex kicked in when I read "Sheila" and then logged on to see this post. Damn, Annie, I should know better by now!
