As simple as A-B-C

just pondering from a conversation with a friend that i tend to name my possessions in alphabetical order.

thinking back, perhaps the reason i name them alphabetical order, an inspiration from the USA Hurricane system. i didn't realise it until a few years ago... the first hurricane tracked by the americans begins with A then on and on... on a busy season (like what we experienced last year... after Z, they start again with A. And after a major hurricane, they drop the name from the list... example.. Katrina and Rita are no longer available.


names of my teddies: Andie , Bobbie, Cookie. Ok, i try to name it in a gender free name; Andie/y and Bobbie/y can be a fe/male name but cookie represents the famous amos biscuits the teddy came with... and you can probably see a pattern coming now.... ok... in case you don't... i have rename Andi to Andie (with a 'e' like Andie McDowell) so that all ends with '-ie'... it'll be a task to name my following teddy bear.. to follow my name (lame) or find another that starts with D and ends with -ie. suggestions anyone?

names no longer available for future usage (Milkie and Tweetie... milkie after the stuffed cow i got as a present from a secret admirer at PWC and tweetie after the stuffed bird i got while i was at Gold Coast Movie world, my Australian road trip companion)

names of my car collection: Angie (sounds like Engine), Betty (sounds like Battery) and Carina (sounds like Car)... hahahah. yes, there's a system / pattern to all this name business. yes yes, you can all stop rolling your eyes now .. too much eye rolling ain't good for ya. oh, car names are female names.. and doesn't have to have any rhythm to it.

my crystals are still nameless though...
