The whole thing really is *too* funny! I had *no idea* there were that many of us around here!!!

And yeah, that reading's pretty darn close... I used to *hate* my name, all through gradeschool where I was the only Karen in my class. Then I got to jr high, and there was one other--and she was my nemesis from Day One. At least her surname began with an S, so we didn't have to *sit* next to one another!

I also remember the first time someone asked me how to spell Karen. I honestly had no idea there was any other way!
