The Two Sisters have made it to
Spunky Junior's blog roll. I have to put it down to Spunky Jr.'s pity for us poor silly sisters because clearly our blog is not worth reading yet. It is certainly not due to my wittiness.
Anyway, now that we are there, I thought I had better explain why my nickname is "Kirk" so as to cause less confusion (it is, after all, generally considered a boy's name). It started with the pickles, I believe. I loved pickles. I still do. And when I was younger (like three or so), I was particularily fond of Gerkin pickles. So my aunt called me "Kerkin McGerkin" (I was very young then). That was part of it. The other part came from the fact that my name was Kirsten, and how do you shorten a name like that? So my friends and Jo called me "Kirky". The
y was dropped in the course of time.
So, if you happen to see Kirk in the blogosphere, please do not mistake me.
