Too funny Laughing

I was looking into making a terrarium (<--worlds nerdiest word?)
around the time I joined EDS. Sundews are cute little carnivorous plants that come in different shapes, colors, and sizes. I quite like them Smile

Well, I went the wildly creative route of using my first name, and the first letter of my last name! Laughing

Mary Very Happy

P.S. The sundews are really cool looking!

Mary, you are so original. Laughing I'm no better. Yen is short for my first name Yen Lan. So much for being creative.

Awwww, those Sundews are so pretty--- you rock Sundew!

My name isn't all that creative either guys, don't worry! Manslayerliz is a relic, leftover from the days when I raised man-hunting to an art form, lol!! These days I'm a boring married woman, but I still use manslayerliz out of habit and laziness--- much to my husband's chagrin! ("Manslayerliz?? That's what you still call yourself???? What's wrong with my name for you, Princess of Powder????" "It's a nice name baby, but it usually doesn't fit....")

I just picked the first name that came to mind when faced with the "username" question. I have multiple personae "out there" depending on the type of forum I'm regged at. Skincare/beauty sites are "Anya"...the rest are totally different Bad Grin

My name ParisTroika comes from my roller derby name (same thing only with a space: Paris Troika).
I skate for a team called the Iron Curtain...so we all have names like mine. Paris Troika is based off of perestroika, which was the economic restructuring program in the mid-1980s before the fall of the Soviet Union.

I answer to either Paris or Annie...haha (Annie is my real name).

I know mine is dorky, but it's easy to remember, and easy to type. First name is Nadine, and at the time I first used this login, I was into jazz music. Bad Grin

Those sundews are indeed gorgeous!

I think Freya is such a cool name!

The goddess of war and wisdom has always been my favorite among the pantheon of Greek mythology but someone beat me to it Smile Hence, the 123 suffix.

I have yet to attain wisdom, 'though I aspire to it...

My real name, Virginia is just too boring Sad
