Okay, if your roomate, hypothetically speaking (of course) said the following to you:

"Lydia, will you take me and Miss 'Lyssie's picture?" what would your immediate reaction be?

My immediate and unvoiced_{(see "1" below)} reaction was to be about to say something along the lines of "Yes, mum" and bob a curtsy. Fortunately,_{(see "1" below)} I contented myself with simply saying "Sure." It's just the way E. is: she tends diminish all proper names with "-ie" and lately has been intermittently been using "Miss" as well. But the oddness of her not doing either to my name while doing both to A.'s, was a bit striking, I thought. It's the kind of thing Elizabeth might say to Hill if she had a friend over (and if cameras had been around c. 1810).

1. Unfortunately, perhaps: I'd probably be a much more amusing person if I voiced my imediate reactions.

And now, on to more important things:

Congratulations

Ah, I will run away and hide in embarrassment! Thanks Lydia!

Next time I'm make it blink, or something. Or tie it to a sound file when the mouse goes over it, if I can figure out how to do that.
