in Chit-Chat
My usual user/screen name is Cinderellamom - I use it for facebook, twitter, my blogs.... and I used it with my original MFP account last year.

How I came up with it- One day when my daughter J was about 3 she was standing with me in the kitchen (read- attached to my hip in the kitchen)- I was going about my usual multi tasking- laundry, dishes, dinner when she said to me that she wanted to be just like me when she grew up- I was feeling quite worn out and I asked her if she wanted to do a lot of housework. She said No, she wanted to be a Cinderellamom just like me..... how *kitten*'n sweet is that?!?!? I love my girls!!!

So how did you come up with your user/screen name?

    Would you believe there were 41 other Taso's that came before me? :laugh:

    Actually, I just tack on the 42 because often taso actually is taken, and I like 42 for the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy reference.

    I fondly remember the days when I was the only taso on the internet.

    That's soooo cute!! Love your story! Mine is my *alter ego* from my high school days. My friends and I all had names that we would call each other when we were out or writing notes to each other. I was Jaedyn Moon...one of my friends was Trixie something....another one Kelly Starr....and that's the only ones I remember :)

    My magical name is how it started back in my 20s, but now it is almost always my screename. I was born in September, hence the Sapphire. One of my spirit or totem animals is the tiger, and I liked the idea of changing the spelling to "tyger"

    spaceangel - I was a huge KISS/Ace Frehley fan back in the day and this part derived from his spaceman persona.

    66 - The year I was born.

    asteroid vs mars -- I've had this username for several years now on other sites. I wanted a unique name. I was just browsing through games and CDs looking for ideas. One of my brothers had a space game with a red planet and asteroids around it.. I thought of Mars and asteroids.. vola! It made sense in my mind at the time.
