Picked it up somewhere; found it in different places.

Four places I would love to be:
London
The flat bit of Canada (failing that, eastern Groningen, preferably on a
bus)
Anywhere at the seaside
Beverwijk, strangely enough, because that’s where I used to go whenever I
needed a brain reboot when I was living in Haarlem
Four favorite colors:
#FFEBCD blanchedalmond (was my website background colour for years)
#8B0000 darkred
also, though all greens and most blues are off for my vision on a computer
screen:
#53868B cadetblue4
#228B22 forestgreen
Four names I love but wouldn’t/couldn’t use for a kid:
(these are names we didn’t actually use for kids, though they were
considered)
Sara(h) - felt too much like an old woman’s name
Rachel - it wouldn’t have done to call twins something with the same
initial. But every year on the eve of the Sunday of the Fathers of the Old
Testament, singing the sticheron in the sixth tone about Sarah, Rebecca and
Rachel, I vaguely wish I’d known beforehand that I’d have three daughters
(though Prima and Tertia are glad I didn’t, they like the names they’ve
got).
Daniel - name for my first that didn’t make it. Also, for Younger Boy Twin, but
they were both girls.
Jonathan - name for Primus but she turned out Prima; also name for Elder-or-Only
Boy Twin, see above.
Four people to tag:
<points> You. And you. And you too. Oh, and you. If you feel
called, don’t hesitate.
