    terp is slang for sign language interpreter; when i started creating an online presence, i wanted to incorporate that (as part of my identity) and wanted something other than "wild", "crazy", or "wacky" to modify it

    I thought that perhaps you had attended the University of Maryland - the Maryland Terrapins are called Terps. Clearly, I was way off - LOL.

    you are not the only one; there were a few professional groups that i was part of that had people joining thinking the same thing. but nope, nothing as exciting as university

    One of my favorite shows. Binge watch it at least a couple times a year.

    Before my health took a backslide I used to have an oddball collection of cars, mostly 40s - 60s vintage stuff but also 80s era Turbo Dodges built when Carroll Shelby was partnered with Chrysler Corp. The first car of that vintage I ever bought I picked up in 1990 while still in high school. Even though I sold off the rest of my stuff over the years I still have that one car all these years later. Hence the name.

    Goat was my college nickname, and it has stuck with me into adulthood. I hated it, at first, but it grew on me. FIT has a dual meaning, but the most important one is that I intend to be fit.

    Mines is just my name. Some of the older folks will remember that I used to be Karlottap, but when we had to change everything a few months back I went ahead and changed it to Karla, which is the name I go by. My mother was so kind to give me Karlotta as my first name, but always called me Karla. The Y and P are my middle and last initials.

    The first chronicles were amazing...the second were just so-so...and the third, I only read the first book and I mostly hated it so I haven't finished that series...but the original trilogy, just super good!!!
