Oh my

Well I'm actually just a bit embarrassed by your response to my birthday blog post. I was expecting a few comments from courageous hitherto-lurkers (and got them--thank you, brave souls!) but didn't expect to hear so many nice things from so many people! Now y'all will think I was fishing for compliments . . . only you don't have to stop. I mean, I would never be one to make you curb a generous impulse, right?

But seriously, that was so, so very nice. And it's great fun for me to read about you cool people I haven't heard from before. I'm thinking we should have a young snarky Mormon librarian summit since it turns out there are quite a few of us.

The lovely Claire asked what my first name is and even though it would be awesome to let the Internet think that my parents named me Nemesis during some drug-fueled comic-book phase in the late 70s, that's not true. Plus my mother has outed me so many times in the comments that there's no sense hiding it now. My name is Stephanie, which I quite like because it meets my "good name" criteria: I could be a serious ball-breaking lawyer with this name. Not that I absolutely want to be, but it's good to have options. Also it's not spelled "Stefinee" or "Stefanny" or any other stupid way, which I appreciate. (Note: if your name is spelled in one of these ways, you're still a good person. Your parents are jerks, but you are good.)
