Mine is because my name is Lisa and I'm 5feet tall and weigh 94lbs----------pretty much all my life I've been called some form of "Little". Little one, Little thing, skinny minnie, you name it I've been called it if it relates to small. ONe thing though that pissed me off growing up is everyone accused me of being anorexic. I HATED that. I'm VERY emitaphobic and there is no way that I could force myself to vomit. That's just horrible and even when I told people that I wasn't, they never believed me.

I should really go by my real nickname which is "ChickenLady." I used to do (well, I still can do) a meeean chicken impression. I was then asked to do further impressions and earned the nickname "Barnyard" from others. Not as cute. I can do a good horse, donkey, and turkey and sheep too.

Mine is kinda silly...my Dad made it up when I was younger and he first got me the internet...wanted me to have an original screen name. It's a combination of my middle name (Victoria) and last name (Cameron). It's hardly ever taken when I'm signing up for screen names and stuff so I kept it

I have managed to survive almost 30 years without a nickname, its hard to come up with something to use other than the standard first initial and last name. Fortunately Zilisch isn't a common name I am usually pretty much okay using it.

My fiance and I love to be out on the water in our sailboat it seemed like the perfect fit for me here since my tummy doesn't act up usually when I am on the boat since I am actually relaxed!!! Course that was until last week when he sold the boat to allow him to move up to a bigger boat. We go look at our possible new boat on Saturday!!! At least it has a bigger head (bathroom) than our previous boat.

You too, Alicia?!!!

When the going gets tough, I think in YODA-isms. There is so much, indeed, to be unlearned.

Of course, Harrison Ford is a babe and one of my favourite actors of all time. I love him in "Bladerunner." And of course...as Indiana Jones!

Carrie Fisher ("Princess Leia") is bipolar, incidentally. Have you read any of her novels? They're pretty funny.

Hugs to you once again for seeking support. How's it going re-orienting yourself into life, etc.? You're brave and have GUTS and COURAGE and dare I say "balls?"!!!

One of the bonuses of bipolar is that we're generally a whacky creative bunch...so consider yourself in good company!

May the FORCE always be with you; indeed it is within you.

Kate.

I'm doing OK. Have a checkup on the meds next week. I've got a wedding to get through this weekend - one I'm standing up in.... in a snug dress that makes me uncomfortable and self conscious, my fingers are so fat I can't get my wedding rings on.... the list goes on...
Anyway, thanks for asking!
