What does your user name mean?

We did this on the Guatemala forum to find out why people picked their user name. Some of the names on this forum (StinkyKitty, PowderPiggy and Stormster come to mind!) have me befuddled and very curious!

Tell me why you picked your user name and what it means. Hopefully this will be fun!

I'm gonna be mysterious and let you wonder....

Nah, it's just our dog was Stormy and we called her Stormster (or Stormy Stew) We had to place her in a foster home recently but her foster owner fell in love and is keeping her She is an amazing little Chihuahua we had rescued but she was a nipper sometimes. kinda like me.

My name is Ashley and in college my friends called me Smash. My brother's email was his last name then "effect" and I always liked it. ...So I combined the two!

our road:
started adoption process March '08
5.19.08...matched with emom due Sept. 10th
5.27.08...found out emom/edad are leaning towards parenting and we're now the "back up plan"
6.30.08...emom will only parent if her and edad get married. edad said NO and they informed us they'll be doing an adoption plan
8.25.08...our son was born!
8.26.08...we find out birthparents need more time and they take the baby home for 7 days. We were crushed.
9.2.08...to our shock TPR was signed. Our son is home!

This is a fun thread. I have often wondered the same things too.

Powderpiggy is a name I have used in other online venues. Skiing is my favorite sport. I have been an avid skiier since I was a child. And when the snow falls....I am a powder piggy. Powder as in snow if you are not following me.

Not super creative either......just what my sleep deprived brain decided on first.

I'm a preschool special education teacher who always has a hug for my students (and sometimes their parents too - if they are in need of one.)
