[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nothing for Audrey and Eleanor? I'm curious what you're take on those names are.[/quote]

New poster but here goes

You were a film major at NYU with a minor in women's studies. [b]Audrey was named after Audrey Hepburn [/b]and you still dream of having breakfast at Tiffanys.

[b]Eleanor was named for Eleanor Roosevelt.[/b]  Your women's studies professor wrote her groundbreaking dissertation about Eleanor Roosevelt and conclusively proved she was a lesbian.  You had a small fling with the professor in your junior year. After she dumped you, you became anorexic and began wearing black slacks and turtlenecks and a ponytail in tribute to your film idol, the aforementioned Audrey Hepburn

That summer you met DH on the LIRR when you were going to Hewlett for your nana's 75th birthday, and he was going to Woodmere for his niece's bat mitzvah. He had just finished his second year at Columbia Law and was a summer associate at Sullivan & Cromwell. He invited you to the end of the summer firm outing, and all the WASP partners were enchanted by your Audrey Hepburn shtick. They offered him a job but sent him to Washington because of his finance undergrad from Penn.

You graduated from NYU with a 2.9 GPA and moved to Washington to be with him. You lived in a one bedroom rental in Clarendon for five years while he ground out 100 hour weeks at the firm and you had a series of jobs at Williams Sonoma, Ann Taylor Loft and worked into assistant manager at South Moon Under.

When the partners told him he would become a partner, you were married at the TriBeCa Lofts with your cousin officiating.

[b]You had Audrey two years later[/b] and bought a starter house in Lyon Park in Arlington. [b]Your parents kicked in $100,000 toward the down payment[/b] because of a comment your sister-in-law made to your sister that you were not pulling your earnings weight with your slacker jobs

Two years later you had Eleanor and are now happily a SAHM who [b]gained enough weight during two pregnancies to no longer be able to pull off the Audrey Hepburn look[/b] and have veered more to Eleanor Roosevelt

You do favors for all the working moms in your neighborhood out of guilt

The end[/quote]

Love it!  You are only right about the bolded parts but I did go to a top art school (where I met DH), was extremely thin up until DC #1 was born (5'7" and weighed 105-110lbs).   DH is a designer and is definitely the breadwinner of the family. Parents are helping with down payment for house #2 because we couldn't afford it on our own, and it's my inheritance from my grandmother.  I work very part time teaching art classes so am mostly a SAHM.  I do favors for my SIL who works full time and lives in my neighborhood.  Favors always involve picking her kids up from school or some such thing.[/quote]
