Sorting through my bookshelves last night to see if there was anything else I wanted to get rid of, I came across an issue of the Compleat Anachronist (a series of booklets published in the SCA by various people on various topics) which dealt briefly with the Welsh language. In the appendix where it gave suggestions for period names (both given and by-names), I came across the word Madyn, which is apparently one possible word for "fox". I'm getting a funny tingling that this could be a name for me, but then, I always tend to think that with possible names for like, two weeks, until the glow wears off. :p

Either that, or line all walls with bookshelves, which is the other option. ;>

People keep saying I need more art for when I get my own place. I keep saying that I will cover the walls with bookshelves and have no place for the art.
Glad I'm not the only one! ;)
