  Jells is a childhood nickname. "2dot0" references my second coming on TK since this is my second foray into the world of marriage.

  I was re-watching Charmed for the the third time when I hopped on TK and needed a screen name.

  Grew up in Glasgow, living in London. Yeah, I was really stumped when it came to thinking of a screen name!

  I'm a huge Stones fan and She's So Cold is one of my favorite songs.

  Also, I may or may not be kind of a dick.

  Needed to change my sn from my usual social

  I'm a huge Stones fan too. My first choice of screen name was RubyTuesday but seems like about 5 other people had the same idea first...
  
  Eta: there should be a name amnesty. Haven't logged on in 5yrs? Tough shit rubytuesday456

  Quantum physicist with blonde hair. Also a nickname when I was in school.
  
  ETA I'm in a way different field now, but still applicable.

  We have three cats and a dog, and sometimes it seems like a lot more!

  I'm proud of my city (Saint Paul, MN) and "gal" is my favorite self-descriptor.  (less minimizing than "girl," less formal than "woman.")  Not terribly imaginative, but it works.

  My cat used to steal my scrunchies, and I made that sn before I knew how to spell it properly.

  Charlotte is my cat's name. And the numbers are the random knottie#s I was assigned when I first joined and didn't change them.

  Early in our dating, H said that I looked like a monkey when I sip through a straw.  He meant it in a cute way, and even drew me a little cartoon of it.  I thought it was cute, and it became my go-to screen name for things.

  I just really like guacamole and "holy" rhymes with it.   I was born in 79.

  I work as a nurse in an ER. My first name starts with a J. I'm not very creative! My avatar is a 'piñata hospital'. I got the card during nurses week a few years ago and loved it. I took a picture of it and I use it for everything!

  As an Austen lover, I was torn between Lady Catherine and Mr. Woodhouse. I decided to use a quote from Mr. Woodhouse in my signature and Lady Catherine de Bourgh for my name, but I had to shorten it.

  "Marriage is so disruptive to one's social circle." - Mr. Woodhouse

  My original name ended up being our webpage tag and was going to be our hashtag so I changed it (and then changed the hashtag).
  
  My name is Kim, family calls me Kimmi regardless of how old I get, and I live in Michigan, aka the Mitten.  My avatar is a pinup girl in a martini glass because I'm a boozy broad.
