RE: Just as sweet?

in Self Improvement2 years ago

but, it was a 50/50 chance they would use the male version of it.

Lol - it reminds me of all the times I turned up to train a new class, and they were expecting a woman :D

Does it matter? Only if you have one of those names, I suspect. Did it harm me? No, but, I sure took the pains to make sure I was pronouncing a name the correct way.

I try to remember names, but I really am not good at it - it isn't just names though, it is remembering anything!

She is the patron saint of missions and Florists.

There is a patron saint for florists??? I wonder what the weirdest profession is that has a saint for it.

But, Norma Jean? What was her mom thinking?

Her first film was porn.

Sort:

Haha! I remember reading that.

I didn't know it was for florists for the longest time, I always heard it was for missions, but somewhere along the line it was added, or perhaps it was always there and I didn't know it.

Funny you should ask. I had to look it up! In 1969 it was classified as an obligatory memorial and assigned to the date of his death, 15 July. He is the patron saint of bowel disorders. Bonaventure is remembered in the Church of England with a commemoration on 15 July. Thank God it is not Catholic but Church of England!!

Ha! They really expected you to be a woman? There was never a doubt in my mind. It sounds like a yuppy name. Own it. ;) Sorry/Not Sorry

I am still reeling over that patron saint of poop.
