Lately I've noticed I get a lot of people telling me how I share a name with their pets. Or their pets share a name with me. Whichever makes me sound less like a narcissist. Okay.

I guess it's sort of cute but it's also a little unsettling for me. I mean, what? You associate my name with something that claws your couch or chases balls or drinks out of the toilet, etc. Pets are wonderful and we love them even when they do all those things but still. It's strange for me to have a conversation with someone while I'm thinking to myself, This person at some point in their life has yelled PHOEBE DON'T YOU DARE PEE ON THE CARPET or something similar.

Maybe I'm guilty of the same thing. If I meet girls named Harmony all I can think about is how often I say things like Harmony you have got to stop squeezing my boobs like that or Harmony you are one of my favourite things in the whole world but you have such a big butt! [As you do, as a crazy cat lady.] But I understand and accept that's because I'm crazy.

Making gifs is fun but everything has already been... gifed? giffed? made into a gif, already.
