Better than gummi bears!

It is official. I have totally fallen head-over-heels in love and I am adopting my current foster puppy, “RJ“. He truely is better than gummi bears. The adoption fee has been PayPaled. The contract has been faxed. Yay! Puppy for Nahgems for Christmas! Santa must really love me! Isn’t he adorable?


He was left at the shelter with the name “RJ“, but no explanation of what “RJ” actually stands for (Rotten Jerk-Off? Rancid Jellybean? Random Junk?). I kind of like “Rorschach” because of his Catahoula Leopard spots. But that leaves the “J” part. And really there isn’t anything that goes with “Rorschach” and starts with a “J” (I suppose I could just ditch “RJ” as a name, but that seems wrong somehow).I also realize that I am bad at names. My family is still making fun of me for naming my cat “Endel” (after my personal hero, clever Endel Tulving). So perhaps “Rorschach” is a bad choice. Any ideas or suggestions for “RJ“? Neither “Righteous Jesus” nor “Ron Jeremy” work for me. And if you don’t help him, he might end up as “Rorschach Jameel”.

Also, please realize that I haven’t totally lost my mind. I realize that OkCupid is filled with weird creepy people (like you). So, I probably won’t listen to you. This isn’t a democracy like the Greenpeace whale naming competition. And I don’t necessarily want my puppy to end up named “Mr. Splashy Pants”.
