    My username is my initials and my birthday is on the 23rd. I use all kinds of variations of my initials and various numbers for usernames. I just really like my initials for no particular reason. My dad when I was younger always called me CB, and it has FINALLY grown on me!

    When I created my account I worked at zappos.com which has a very unique culture and create fun and a little weirdness was one of the #1 core values expressed. So the whole warehouse worked on a superhero theme. Everyone had a superhero name on there Id badge mine was shyner because i am an extremely shy person.And being a christian I am a light shining in darkness. I have since resigned to be a stay at home mom which came from my CEO's statement of find your passion and pursue it. And I did.

    Well, I sort of needed to make my goals a reality. I had been running on and off for a while, but making it part of my username just seemed to make it more "official." I figured if people read that they would think I was a "serious" runner, so I had to live up to it! Also, I have a 2 year old, so that's where the last part comes from. We currently have another on the way, so I've taken a break from running, but I think I may use my one name change to make it "runnermomof2" :-)

    Because going on a bender has a bad connotation, and I want to change that. Why not go on a Fitness Bender instead?
    Love:love: this!!!

    Mine is pretty easy to figure out. When I first got online back in 2000 I was "mom-of-3". Then in 2002 I had to change it to "mom-of-4". In 2004, rather than changing it to "mom-of-5" I decided to go with "mom of many"... J.H. are my initials, so I have been "jhmomofmany" ever since. :smile:

    My name is a long time inside joke with an old friend, from those old, tasteless episodes of Maury Povich where someone would come on the show and beg Maury to save their kid/cousin/sibling/friend from living a dangerous lifestyle. So whenever my friend or myself did something stupid, the other would say, "Please Maury! Save my (name)!"

    Obviously, my lifestyle of excess fats and no exercise was pretty dangerous, so it was time for me to be saved :)

    Glad you asked, because mine has the word "fat" in it unintentionally.
    It's actually an acrostic for a sign-off I use with my daughter in emails :)
