But you, dear Doxie, may address me by "Avie."<BR/><BR/>(Remember all those great books where the young man finally gets to address his beloved by her first name? Usually at the moment of the engagement! Or even better when the husband addresses his wife as "Mrs. Bennet"!

So I got more tasks done than if I hadn't oiled them. Tell Grandpère he should try it. <BR/><BR/>My name is hard to spell and hard to pronounce. Maybe I just like being esoteric. At least I don't have an accent grave in mine!<BR/><BR/>Grandmère, <I>you</I> may call me "Avie".Aghaveaghhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11966987919128347617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4507878993852082442.post-31732432102288103372007-06-03T16:50:00.000-07:002007-06-03T16:50:00.000-07:00Aghaveagh, that seems like quite a satisfying task...Aghaveagh, that seems like quite a satisfying task to complete.
