A little unwanted vacation

Seems like I shouldn't have electronical devices. I will not be on the net for a while. We are having some issues with our computer and I don't know when we will be able to fix them. I am on my in-laws computer right now. Our DVD player in our basement is broken and the one in our room is trying to quit also. Oh well. Hope to be back soon.

New Blog Title

I thought I would explain my new blog title. My name although uncommon is well known because of the movie star Farrah Fawcett.

I actually have a bit of anxiety when I have to introduce myself to someone new

because I know it will be an explanation. I introduce myself and

always get one of two responses-

"Oh like Farrah Fawcett!", which I politely smile and say "Yep!"

or "Oh hi Sarah!" and I have to say

"It's actually Farrah with an "F" like Frank (maybe I should start saying -like fart!ha ha). It's just one of those lifelong annoyances I get to enjoy.

I usually don't mind it. I actually prefer the Farrah Fawcett response. I once had a dream that a friend of mine whose name is Sarah was repeatedly being called Farrah. She was sooo annoyed and was complaining to me about it. I think I just laughed at her.

I recently purchased a new stove.

The saleslady who I worked with did not disappoint me when I gave her my name, "Oh, like Farrah Fawcett".

It's amazing to me how people say it exactly the same. I even got into a longer conversation with her and said that I share the same birthday as the said celebrity, Feb 2.

She was all too excited to say that this is her b-day also- a fellow groundhog! I think I've actually met more people with my name than with the same b-day.

This last introduction episode has inspired me to honor my name as

the conversational piece that it seems to be.

I tend to "spout" a lot of nonsense on occasion,

sometimes complain too much,

but mostly just share my thoughts and experiences on my blog.

As a faucet is said to be a valve and handle that controls the flow of liquid,

my blog is where I get to control my flow of thoughts, nonsense, complaints,

and experiences. So I will consider each of my posts to be

"drips" not posts.

Hopefully I'm not or won't be as annoying as a real leaky faucet!

P.S. I would love to meet another woman named Farrah and before I introduce myself exclaime-"Oh, just Farrah Fawcett!", or even call her Sarah- just to see her reaction! I know I can't be the only Farrah with this complex!
