Pearls, Juno, my fiancee, Paulina's art, Kij's Words, Neil, being a nearly auntie for Byron and Kim, sparkling wine, shamelessly freaking over my hair an make-up for June 14/May 18, keeping my name because I am not rich enough to be a Prater-Barron with a straight face, Dive Index, Comics with a real story, Mr. Bento Porn on Flicker, Peonies- which ( Read more... )

Oh DOOD, I'm ALL ABOUT the hyphenating. (Cathy Cortez-Lambert) AlTHO.... I'm thinking I might just ADD Lambert to my name.

Then I can be *drumroll* Maria Catarina Cortez Lambert, and have two middle names.

If I was living in Mexico I could take Andy's last name completely and then I could be Maria Catarina Lambert de Cortez.

But as of yet, I haven't done anything with my name. I'm still technically a Cortez on paper, but I've already started hyphenating in all my other paperwork, because legally, you can change your name without doing anything about it by just using another name.

But the OFFICIAL name changing will occur when I get my license taken care of. Apparently, you have to do it there and THEN take it down to the social security office to get it official.

But, you're right, Prater-Barron sounds like you own a county club and a couple mini malls. I don't know, it's pretty pimp, I'd do it.

My main reason was to keep a little of my Hispanic heritage to help me in the job market. I fear that without my old last name, NO ONE WILL SUSPECT. ;)

Cathy Lambert just sounds so damn Caucasian.

Well, I appreciate your offer to help me in my name-changing endeavors :-D, but I am not comfortable taking money from friends. Unless of course I know that I would be able to pay you back somehow sometime soon, and right now I don't know that.

Ironically I do have a PayPal account. Maybe I should post something like a donation jar. ;)

I'll keep you posted. Don't get stressed about the wedding. I got married in a drive-thru.

Hopefully when Andy gets into town we can arrange to hang out. I still haven't seen IRON MAN. I don't know how crazy it's going to be around here, tho, with the newborn.
