"Why would she take his name?" N.A. asked. "She's not proud."
Oh.
Wait a minute.
"So if she kept her name, that would make her proud?" I was confused, especially since we've already talked about my choice to keep my name if/when we get married. (In fact, I posted about it here... the comments are worth a second look, in my opinion.)
"Well, why do you want to keep your name?"
"I like my last name better," I replied, even though he already knew this.
"Well there you go," he answered.
Well, shit. Does staying Dr. Reaction make me conceited?
...or maybe the better question is, if that's true, do I even care?
