Dear Lots Of People Who Will Never Actually Read This,

A couple of things my name is not:

Julie, Jules.

What my name is:

Julia.

It's not unbearably long or difficult to pronounce. It's not incredibly unusual or exotic. If you want to call me by a nickname, please ask

I don't much like being called Steph, and people just decide to call me that all the time. So I understand.

[fitz_clementine]

If I've ever called you Steph in the past, I apologize, then.

Also: Happy Birthday!

[angerfish]

Oh, I meant to write that State College people are exempt from that annoyance. XD

Thank you!

Larry calls me something that sounds like a mix between "Lowr", a swallowing noise, and a wheeze? It is bizarre, and irritating, but I think that's the best he can do at approximating my name.

[fitz_clementine]

That does sound bizarre. Max, the guy I work with, is kind of like that, maybe. He's smart, he has a big vocabulary, but he tends to talk like he has to carry a wadded-up baby sock in his mouth at all times.

Exactly. except, in Larry's case, I think the speech pattern reflects the intellect. (sorry larry)
