Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanyway.

Did y'all know I have a name besides cajungal? It's Leslie, and it's pronounced like this:

Les-lee. How about that?

Well sure if you've got a mouthful of peanut butter or something... do you have a mouthful of peanut butter?
 
L

Lally

Lollypop - pop = Lally. (I imagine some people saying it rhyming with pep rally. That is not so.)

Laur (rhymes with bar, not bore) + uh = me!

We don't have any in the apartment. :(
Well, that sucks.
It does! I need to go to the store, we're out of pretty much everything and my stomach will rage if I eat ramen again.

He needs brick dust and salt now.
 
Fer as in Fertile.... ish.

nan
as in Nantucket

do
as in door minus the "r".

It's hard as hell to find ways to use the short vowel sounds sometimes. I was trying to make sure you guys don't think Fernando is pronounced fur-nan-dough... it's not. Especially the "dough" part. It's a short "o" as in "orgasm". Can't find a word to illustrate how to pronounce "Fer" though....OOH, I know.. FERtile.. that's close enough. Fertile.

Of course, it's hard to pronounce it completely accurately, so even though I hate they way it sounds, I WOULD respond to "Fur-nan-dough".

The way you pronounce the "fer" sounds kind of like "fair" but not so nasal. Like.... fehr nahn doh

You give me back my chicken stick! Nobody said you could borrow that!

I know. I have 11. Would you like me to send you all 15,487 pictures of them? :p
Good grief, I have 2 and their a huge handful! Can't even imagine!


I'll tell you what, if my real name were to be guessed correctly, I'd admit to it. I can guarantee it'd be impossible to find out though, for one it's a very uncommon name, doubly so for someone of hispanic backround. Almost hippy in choice.

I'll give the first letter: "C"

In trying to say this, I'm trying really hard to not say "dough" but I'm finding it nearly impossible. Oh, the woes of being a dumb hick :\

Heh, I know, it IS kind of a latin sound...think of the "do" in like.. Donatello. Or... dork. Y'know.. that short, quick "o" sound.


You guys aren't gonna make me record this one too, are you? :p
