My name is Rigel & my sister is named Lyrica. Lyrica is now the name of a pain med, so that is annoying for her to have people comment on all the time. No one has ever picked on us for our names, but I get so tired of constantly...

I do think Vermonters tend to be less into organized parenting groups than in lots of other places with a lot of "crunchy" type people. I think one of the great things about VT is that people tend to be less judgmental than I've...
