My Life and Other Meaningless Drivel

Here's a great theatre blog I ran across the other day:

my life...and other meaningless drivel

I've posted my thoughts and memories of my maternal grandmother, Mamo all over my blog. I was named after her and it is my honor and privilege to share that with her. She was Chizuko, I am Chizue...both have something to do with the meaning of "1,000 cranes" which is considered "good luck" in Japanese. There have been times when I've even considered telling people to refer to me as Chizue versus Lisa (in part to honor Mamo, but also because Lisa is such a plain ordinary name). Unfortunately nobody and I mean nobody can pronounce it correctly (except for people who actually speak Japanese and know how to pronounce it the right way), so I decided to stick with Lisa. In case anyone was wondering, it's pronounced chee-zoo-eh.
