I have a friend that owned one of those cats, she described the experience similar to owning a badger.

I have a parrot, his name is Cliste (Irish for clever) because he learned to take the nuts and bolts out of his cage 2 weeks after I got him.

My name all started with Ziron. When I first got on the interwebs (lol) I wanted to have a unique name that I could use anywhere without having to come up with a new name on every single site. So I came up with Ziron. No one else used it at that time. It was great I could use the same name everywhere. Well I was into playing alot of Delta Force 2 on a 28k connection where I had to lead targets by 20ft to get kills and where others had to do the same because of my lag. Well alot of people thought I was a hacking haxor meanie. So they started registering Ziron before me on all the gaming sites. So due to this I had to come up with another unique screen name that I could use. Once this one gets taken its on to another name with a z in it somewhere lol

Too funny! Next time I sign up at a new place, I am using a fake pic of a random 25 year old hottie with lots of cleavage and making up a sleazy screen name!

That will be WAAAY more fun and won't the guys just fall all over themselves trying to help me out with my problems??

Based on the description just a small change to your SN would work...."I'll be your nanny" or something along those lines anyway.

As for mine...live in Reno so just made it a little play off of the term river rat...boring I know.

Crazyinariz is because I love living in Arizona. It's 1150pm and the temperature is down to 100f. People say I'm crazy because I think the 70's are chilly and wear thermals when the temperature drops into the 60's. 100-110f is perfect weather to me.

Hi gang *waves* Back after a whirlwind of illness (mine and mom's - we're sorted now!) death of our beloved kitty, adoption of two more fuzzballs, writing angst, a vacation to texas to see my great aunt, disability services red tape stuff... just an avalanche of little things that would have been okay in isolation but dealing with them all at once added up to not getting online for a while. This looks like as good a thread as any to jump back in, so...

Seanchaí is the Irish word for storyteller. It's a title I'm not worthy of, to be honest; in ancient Irish society, the seanchaí was one step below the bard, who was one step below the tribal chief. Together, the bard and the seanchai were responsible for maintaining the oral history of the tribe.

When I'm writing well, that's my goal; to tell the experiences and history of where I come from, but where my characters come from, too.

Welcome back Seanchai!~

I started listening to the progressive rock band Rush in the mid 70's and I never really stooped. Been a fan ever since.

Their second album has a song on it called By-Tor and the Snow Dog. In the song the two engage in battle and the Snow Dog emerges victorious.

When I signed up here I had that song on my mind so I figured what the heck.

[Amberina]

My name is a nickname given to me by my mom when I was younger. She passed away when I was 17 so I use this name for all of my accounts because it reminds me of her. It is my way of letting her know I am still thinking about her

Username derived from my last name and everyone being too lazy to pronounce the whole thing.

I thought I was the only one that feels like it's subzero when the temps hit the 60's lol Glad I'm not alone! Howdy neighbor!!

Very touching and quite appropriate Amberina.

Well I guess we balance each other out then. If it's below -5F I might wear gloves and a scarf, otherwise I just toss on a sweater and head on outside. Unless it's 40F then I go to short sleeves. If it's 65F or hotter I hide inside in AC....If I were to be super wealthy I would never see another summer. I'd see fall, winter and spring in the northern hemisphere then head to the southern hemisphere to do it all again

I am so with you on never seeing another Summer if I had my druthers.

Oh jeez, I couldn't survive there. I've been in AZ since 97 so my blood has become overly acclimated to this heat, still not a fan of it though. My happy place is a high of 79 which means I'm only happy 2 months out of the year here lol

 

[TheColdHandedVG]

My username comes from people calling me "Caveman" back in the day...not because I was hairy but because I was really into weightlifting and a lot of people said they could picture me walking around with a club and hitting people so the name just kind of stuck. They also used to call me Gorilla Chest but that didn't stick even though I liked that better lol. The 123 part is just purely for lack of anything better to diversify...
