I came wandering in from my birthday weekend trip to be with Sweetie.  Today’s the actual day – 69th…  Yesterday, though, was the celebration.  Birthdays for me for the last few years have been non-events.  This time?  I’ve never experienced a Brazilian steakhouse.  Sweetie saw to it that I can no longer say that.  I left there in a carnivorous coma.  Evening wasn’t over, though.  A little old theater in Bryan, Texas has been overrun by a group intent on showing significant films and last night’s significant film was Blazing Saddles.  She sat there beside me laughing at the same parts I laughed at.

So anyway, I had to leave College Station, drive home, and read the paper this afternoon.  The big hospital across the river reports sixty-three new babies from between June 7 and June 24.  of those, thirty-two were to unwed parents and four new mommies didn’t get the name of the baby daddy.

Let’s see what slops over the rim this week:

Richard D. & DaQuoya(!!) H. show their love of geography by tagging a son with Jordan Cairo.  So…  ‘kay-RO’ like the American city or ‘keye-ro’  like the Egyptian one?

Jonathan & Brittni(!) T. call their son Legend Michael.

Artredicus(!) A. & Dajha(!) F. do a son with Amir Kayson, which is almost bland compared to his parents.

Derrious &  La’Tasha A. give their daughter Natalia Rose, which is a huge step back from om and dad.

Kaylon(!) J. & Kaitlyn B. show their son Karsyn Laine because spelling makes a difference.

Rovontae(!) L. & Ramica(!) G. do their son with Bentley Jamal, soon to be followed by little sister Bugatti.

First punctuation wanly arrives as Ronald A. & Dokota(!) R. present a son Syer A’mor.  “yes, syer.”

Steven & Megan D. triple out on their daughter Victoria Nicole-Raine.

Miss Autumn W. chooses a random surname for her son, Kallahan Andrew.  Baby daddy?  No gots.

Trevion(!) & Frantasia(!!!) D-D perpetuate  the travesty by naming their son Trevion Isaiah.

Desmond & Jamie V. do a daughter with Dyiah Danielle.

Miss Veronica N. apostrophicates a baby boy with De’Cota Earl Noel.  father is an afterthought, apparently.

Miss Marilyn H. starts her new son off with elevated status by naming him Major Malik.

Jared A. & Anna B. give their daughter her very own apostrophe when they name her Audrey Jeau’le.  Father is an un-named option.

Miss Kayla W. triples up on her daughter Kinley Simone Marlise, having plenty of room on the registration form since she didn’t waste it on writing out a father’s name.

James & Paige C. get all trydneigh with their daughter Brigleigh Janelle.

And thus endeth this week’s foray of “America Circling the Drain.”
