Sorry for Calling You Alice

Happy Birthday (Month) Alice!! A little story about where the name Alice comes from.

It's happened more times than I can count. Emails are exchanged, we meet over Skype, talk on the phone, and sometimes we meet in person before at some point it is discovered that I am not Alice.

Illinois. No, not Chicago.

Illinois. No, not Chicago.

When I try describing exactly where I am from:

about 5 hours South of Chicago; about 2 hours North of St. Louis; near Hannibal, Mo - you know, Mark Twain's books, Tom Sawyer & Huckleberry Finn...

nothing-ness, eyes glaze over, no geographical clue to my references.
