Anagrammarian


So, a friend of mine
made an anagram the other day and it was a reawakening for me. How could I have overlooked the potential nerdy fun that anagrams have been offering to me for all these years? I can't even begin to list all of the signs that the universe has thrown my way. And what have I done? Simply shoved them aside. But I'll shove aside no longer!

I'm officially addicted to anagrams.

Yesterday was Stake Conference. Instead of having both a Sunday and a Saturday session, they had two Sunday sessions. The talks were great, but sometimes I get a little antsy over four-hour periods and the best way for me to pay attention (though it may sound contradictory, it's true) is to doodle or draw. This Stake Conference I anagrammed. (Yes, "Anagrammed" is a word.)

I went through a bunch of my friends' names, and of course my own:
(Disclaimer! Some of the words that were in said names were not of my choosing and are not meant to offend.)

Brooke Nelson~ O, Bone Snorkel!
Michael Gordon Brandley~ Bar Honored Melding Clay
David Robert Kuboshige~ I Sever Hag Boob, Turd Kid.
Lauren Virginia Pieper~ Inn Ire I Rape Vulgar Pie.
Kiera Yvette George~ I Yet Revere Goat Keg.
Camille Christina Butler~ Chili Cream Bent Slut Liar
Jason Scott Jacobs~ Jots Jab, So Can Cost.
Kyle Brandon Peterson~ Born Slant? Peek Yonder.
Spencer Douglas Earnest~ Prongs Recede, Steal a Sun.
Micah William Richards~ I Chair Swim: Child Alarm.

My only wish now is that I could be a professional anagrammaraian. (No, "Anagrammarian" is not a word. But it should be.) So, if anyone has a name they would like me to work out, please let me know. I won't charge. I'm sure you can anagrammatize (This one IS a word.) it on your own, but if you want to throw me a bone anyways and give me something to entertain myself with, I'd appreciate it. I won't charge. I'm just a nerd who is going to run out of friends soon...

I think i just found my new favorite hobby.

and there were just too many darn people in our China group.

At least 16 unnecessary ones.

the more I read the blog the more I realize what a shame it really is.

Kindred spirits!

Except for you got to go back to wonderful China and I went to plain ol' Russia.

Oh the Russia...

(I'm not sure if this comment made any sense)
