What's in a Name



Recommended Posts

Hi guys

Its been great and so interesting seeing where u all got your nics from. I'm Loretta from Australia so know nothing of the Cowboys the Sooners or any other US teams.. sorry :)

I'm Tangle.. a name i have had since i was a little kid for the obvious reason of being clumsy and getting tangled in everything i got into.. not that exciting but it stuck so i use it on the net as well :o

Good luck to all of you and keep up the great job u r all doing :clap2:

I use bitteroldhag as a moniker because one of my students called me a bitter old hag on ratemyprofessor.com. It hurt my feelings at first but then I figured that kid didn't do too well in my class so I adopted it for my internet name. My real name is Sharon and I'm 59 years old and would like to be thinner though I've only gotten to 185 pounds (down from 220). I take care of 7 animals and my 86 year old mother and teach a full load at Northeastern State University in Oklahoma. Boo, Sooners and Cowboys.

Hi Sharon, Love NSU! Went there after high school for several years. Wish I had graduated there. I hear they are no longer the Redmen because of the PC police? Is that right?

Well mine is totally not creative. Usually I am AliCat521 but I think it was taken. So obviously my name is Alicia and my b-day is 5/21.

I'm Jessica! My name, JDru, is a nickname I got around the time everyone was calling Jennifer Lopez JLo. So J is from my first name, Jessica and the Dru is part of my last name.

Green is my family name and also a very nice colour. I usually think of myself as Green or by my initials, rarely by my first name which happens to be Alice.:xena_banana:

I love seeing the reasons behind everyone's usernames!! Some have some really awesome ideas! My username is pretty easy to figure out. When my nephew was a little tike, he couldn't say Denise so he called me Aunt Niecy and it stuck. Renee is my middle name and I live in the great state of Missouri!!

My favorite color is blue, and Sky Blue is my favorite shade. Followed by my #2, Carolina Blue...Go Tarheels!!!! I just changed the spelling. If I have a daughter, I thought of naming her Skye Blu. My friends think that is going too far. I think it would be a cute name though.:)

Oh, and my name is Yolanda....And I was born in 79. :)

Yeah, we had to drop the Redmen even though we have more Native Americans per capita than any other university in the nation. But some folks are a serious pain in the ass. I also love NSU. It's a good school and we are making it better. But I graduated from OU in 1969 so I'm a real Sooner. I'm sure glad Adrian Peterson is finally well. I was worried. He'll probably get hurt in the next game, but I was proud of the Sooners without him.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
