Hi MaryAnne, I'm filled with sympathy about your name. My daughter's name is Lisanne - all one word and just 2 syllables - but people kept trying to call her Lisa Anne. We had to correct them many, many times. But I wanted her to have a unique name, and not something like Hepzibah Butterbean, so she's Catherine Lisanne, and she is very special & unique. She's my Meloni enabler and has bought me many Meloni goodies from e-bay for the last 3 Christmases, since I discovered him. She likes him but not to the degree that I do. Of course, she has a handsome husband to enjoy, and I don't.

I'm LadyLapis and I live in Chattanooga, TN. I'm over 50 (don't ask how much) and divorced and live with 2 furbabies, orange, long-haired brother cats. I also have itinerant raccoons & possums that sneak in my cat-door to eat the cat food. I'm semi-retired & looking for part-time work. I have a major lustcrush for Christopher Meloni. Welcome to the group!
