Love the picture!! And I will do my best to start thinking of you as Mesila. It'll be easy to start calling you that, but thinking it will take a little time.

Strange...I would've thought it'd be the other way around.
And apologies profusely. I know it's a pain in the rear - which is why I have not done it since nineteen eighty-five.
But it was REALLY time - my private list counted eleven soundly-grounded reasons for doing it.
And so far, people who I have introduced myself to as Mesila seem to take to me more readily, and I think it has something to do with the name being easier to say and HEAR than "Monde". That monosyllabic THUD! that sounds too much like Maude or Vaughn or somesuch and which EVERY single person sans exception who didn't speak French who met me on the net FIRST and then in person would call me "Mondey", not cluing that the 'e' was silent, and I hated having a name that would end up having people call me something with that ditzy sounding "eeee" vowel at the end of it. Yuck

Ya,I've just come back from neglecting a bit as well, due to the stupid minimum-wage-drudgery. Blah. But you do seem a whole lot more optimistic and Choronzon seems to be pushing you just the right amount. ^^
