    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

    @tcunbeliever that is totally not what I thought it would be...honestly, just thought the "t" was misplaced within the first couple of letters lol (no disrespect!)

    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!!!

    Just my name, Kristin Lee, and first letter of my last name. Did not use an ounce of creativity (or time) on this one!
