Lamoid Here…
So Suzan and I had a fabulous Saturday in Oakland, hanging with our friend Laura, whom we haven’t seen in the months since she moved out of the neighborhood, visiting the Oakland Rose Garden (which is stunning even for the non-floral) and seeing Monsoon Wedding, which is even more stunning and then, in a truly awful display of cheesiness, eating Indian food for dinner. It was after 11 by the time we got to bed and I thought I could still get up at 6 to run Bay to Breakers, do the race and get home in time to finish Rick Moody’s new book, The Black Veil before I interview him tomorrow.
Ha! The book is barely done, I feel sleep deprived all over so I called buddy Jish whom I was supposed to meet at the starting line with other buddy Kristin and aprised him of the situation. He was understanding.
I must have needed it because I slept until 9 and have been motoring away on Moody since. It’s going to be a long, wet day of reading.

I was absolutely amazed to find the name ‘lamoid’ on the web. My father was baptized lamoid thomas fitzgerald, and our family always thought it was something that my grannie made up. although she claimed that the name came from greek mythology, we have never found any reference to it. if you have any information about the origen of this name, i would be very grateful if you could e mail it to me.

Lamoid is a made-up spelling of Lame-oid as in “one who is lame”. Sorry its not anything more than that.

Finally found a link to Lamoid, the name of my father. Seems as if it has something to do with thr genus of a llama. Has nothing to do with Kevin’s “invented?” lame-oid.
