Blanket Criticism
June 29, 2009Today I am feeling thankful for many things, primary among which is that I am not named “Blanket.”
Doll Cannot Fly
I used to write about fashion dolls. Sometimes we would have to add things like "Doll cannot fly" at the bottom of the copy. Just to be perfectly clear
Or Pillow? Poor Pillow? Isn’t that Michael’s daughter’s name? Am I making that up? Doesn’t he have one Blanket and one Pillow? Seriously, I am not trying to be funny.
I’m also thankful that I’m not named Apple, Chastity, Moonbeam or according to a name book that I read when looking for names for my kids names like Lettuce and Ham!
Imogen – Yes – so much to be thankful for!
La Belette Rouge – I haven’t heard that one. I have images of those kids at their Grandma’s house in Encino, suddenly thrust into a very suburban life with bologna sandwiches and carrot sticks for snacks. Although, we are talking the Jackson family here, so probably …. no.
If I was a book agent I would be waiting on that front door when the kids turn 18 with a contract in my hand. Oh, the stories they will have to tell.
