Wow, Ocean is a *beautiful* name. I bet we would be friends if we lived close to each other.

But just because neither you nor I would take another's name just means we have a respect that others don't. I wish the world was so hip to courtesy, but most of the world is not.

Right now I'm at the point of feeling like "Good luck! Try to pull that one off!"

I have a feeling that she will be compared to me so much that it might change her mind anyway, especially as I am going to distance myself from her as much as I can without putting any energy out there.

And maybe this will only make me stronger.....
