Tell me about your username
I don't think we've done this in a while ... let's talk usernames! What does yours mean, or how/why did you choose it?
I borrowed mine from my daughter. When we picked out her name my niece tried to say Leah but it came out like "WEEah" and that turned into a while slew of silly nicknames for her. Weeah, Weezie, Weezers, Weezie-kins,, WeezieWeez, etc. I thought "Weezers" was pretty easy to read, and I liked the way it sounded. (I joined the knot a long time ago but I rarely posted and then I forgot my name & password. I had to create a new profile when I started posting on the nest and I wanted something short & easy this time.)

Re: Tell me about your username
I'm short and SO/FI is tall and broad (built like a hockey player). He will occassionally pick me up for a big hug and I'll wrap my legs around him...somehow he started calling me his little koala. And I'm definitely fiesty. So FiestyKoala was born.

It's our names put together. Technically Dale is really his middle name so it should be alycecharles (man alycedale is so much easier to say...lol).
Plaid for the uniforms I wore in prep school + Frog for my undergrad mascot (TCU Horned Frogs) + an extra "g" just b/c I liked the way it looked.
DH's name and my name. I made it when we joined the knot and never changed it. very unoriginal!
boring names are better then stupid ones. I have a stupid one. When I was engaged to exFI he called me his princess, which shows you one example of many things wrong with that relationship. I also found out my parents called me that behind my back, but more in a sarcastic not nice way. the word now makes me want to barf.
I re came on the nest years later when I was married to DH, oddly we also got married in April so it's still the right month, but still a dumb name.

Many moons ago, back when I still had a social life, I was driving around two drunk beatrices from bar to bar. They progressively got more inebriated the more bars we visited, as would be expected. When we were leaving Cecil's, and heading back to the west side to meet up with friends at Sherlock's, I peeled out of the parking lot and laid down some sparks. At which point, the drunk beeetches in my car proceeded to screech "sarasparks" for the remainder of the ride. The only thing that shut them up was when we met a stripper named Trixa at Sherlock's. Then it became 20 minutes of them saying "silly wabbit, Twixa for dicks!" Oy. I guess I could have been Twixa, but I'd rather not have a user name associated with a drunk stripper.
Incidentally, those girls still call me sarasparks to this day. I lurve them, even when they are more obnoxiously drunk than me.
Click it if you can't say it!
I vote for sarsparks for best story!! LOL!
Mine? Boring and self-explanatory from just wanting to get signed up quickly for The Knot.
I was just thinking that we haven't done this in awhile.
CareBear is a nickname that DH gave me - I am A&M class of 2001.
(not a #1 CareBear lover as some might think.
)
