Solveig's name

Holy cow. In response to a remark of [livejournal.com profile] averagegirl I actually looked up the meaning of Solveig's name for the first time. Embarrassing to admit I haven't done so until now.

I'd simply picked it because it was Norwegian (this is Minnesota, after all), and I liked the sound of it.

I had no idea that the name means "House-woman." Or, according to one website I checked "House of Strength."

What a perfect name for a woman architect.

Sometimes I'm so inadvertently brilliant that I scare myself.

It's yet another sign that This Book Must Be Written.

As a ScanAm/Scandophile, I was already giving you credit for niftiness on that one. But niftiness still counts when it's accidental.

That and the frozen fish block.

Yes! It MUST BE WRITTEN! And I, for one, needed no more evidence of your brilliance. But it's nice to feel validated!
