Gee, I'm embarrassed to admit it but years ago I was a beta tester for AOL when they first came out with 16 letter names or whatever it was. I was in pretty bad place in my life and used to distract myself by going into chat rooms and starting with people. Pathetic I know, but I had a lot of fun and it it took my mind off the reality of the time. Anyway, I used the screen name "My Darkest Side" and everyone on-line started calling me Darkest and it kinda stuck. My life is much different now and I'm in a much better place but still use it because I think it sounds kinda cool. My friends call me Jon :)

My avatar is a clue. I'm originally from Manchester and the starling is practically the city's official bird. I remember huge clouds of them filling the sky every autumn when they migrated.

Well I migrated - or strayed, you might say - too, to a place where I'm an invasive species who likes it here and has decided to stay for a while.

There's also a really obscure TV movie reference in there.

And you ended up in Seattle? What was her name?

My ex-boyfriend was from Southampton and he ended up here for a girl. LOL Poor thing. I think he likes it here better though - its warmer

Haha! No, it wasn't a girl, it was spur of the moment opportunity for a job somewhere I hadn't been before.

Plus, it is warmer here which is nice.

Mine came from a book I read a long time ago. The Dragonlance series. There's a character named Tasslehoff Burrfoot and he was a Kender. Gotta be one of my all time favorite characters. I used it with AOL and I guess I'm still using it. Some things never change.


I loved that series... and that character lol..

Because I spend so much of my time, looking at the sky... day or night it is always beautiful.

:oops: sorry ikenmoke, i hope you don't think i was trying to be disparaging, i thought is was quite endearing. :)

and now i feel like an idiot for referring to Thanasis as "I Am". lol

sorry Imeo... oops did it again. :oops: lol

Ofcoarse I don't find it disparaging! If anything hilarious! My daughter was crazy about candy cigarettes because Daddy smokes, she used to say the same thing. Now she has her own batteries to charge and blow through and yes ikenvape!

Don't feel that way!Well how are We supposed to know imeo meant I am? Lol



WildSky those are Beautiful!!!!
