Have you become your on-line persona?


I had something funny happen to me today at church.

I was chasing after my two year old trying to catch her long enough to get her coat on and one gentleman said to me, "You know, she is fast! I was in the nursery today and she got out and was gone in a second!"

I said, "I know, she's faster than a speeding bullet."

At that point I reached for her and missed.

Then he said, "You know you almost have to be able to stretch your arms like...what's that female hero's name on the Incredibles?"

I said, "You mean Elasti-girl?"

He said, "Yeah, that's it! You need to turn into Elasti-girl!"

I just laughed to myself at the irony of that statement... laughing.gif

That's cool Poncho!

Here's what I need to do:

1.  Ask to be called to the nursery.
2.  Wear my comfortable old boots to church each Sunday.
3.  Insist that all the kids call me Roper. cowboy.gif

In my case I am un-becoming my online persona... I chose PollyAnna cause I have always been referred to as "a Pollyanna"... I always like to think of myself that way...

I really should change my name to Maxine, cause I am becoming a terrible GROUCHY old lady!

Solve?  How can you miss so many keystrokes in a row?  "Create" and "solve" only have one letter in common.

MegaMatt fell in love with me because of my feet...

or my hair, but he sure does love my feet, which is good for me because it means free foot massages and he loves it too! smile.gif

Ray I would enjoy being in the same ward with you... If only to have the opportunity to smack you upside the head.... personally... wink.gif ..... rofl.gif ..... censored.gif

In all seriousness, there isn't anyone that wants to be around me lately (including my own family)... I am such a terrible grouch in real life, right now.

Although I admire the fictional character of Spock for many reasons, I would not want to become him.

Quickly scanning this thread, reading a few lines at a time.  I saw "Matt fell in love with me because of my hairy feet."  That prompted me to go back and read more carefully.  Or is that the real reason you keep them covered with colorful stockings?

hahahahhahahhaa! Roper, that made my night!

I guess you can tell I'm an engineer in training by my lack of communication skills.

My feet really aren't that hairy, although my sister does make fun of me because I don't shave my toes like she does, but you can only see the hair in the sunlight really.

Actually, I more commonly wear flip-flops than socks. Well, maybe I do wear socks more now that I have to for work, but I used to only wear flip flops until it was just too cold out, or I was playing sports or something.

However, my head does have hair, of the crazy curly and flaming red variety.

If we had to talk about hairy, MegaMatt is hairy! His chest hair is just popping out of his shirt! He was growing a (red) beard for Christmas, but he had to shave so he could play the trombone for the oratorio.

Become?

BECOME?!?!?!

I was BORN a princess. The blaster was a gift at the baby shower.

And Daddy Vader sometimes just has to use his force powers to choke the throats of naughty men in priesthood meeting who use the time to spew out Mormon Myth as gospel doctrine.

Ooops. Now I have gone and told you my genealogy and you will be jealous.
