momo is a family word we use for silly, crazy, nutty. and 28 is my fave number. :)

I used to be RebelFem. When my X was being hassled by the father of 2 of her kids - he was actually coming to DS and copying posts we made and taking them to court - I came up with SomeonesBitch, of course, some narrow minded DS user had to complain so it was shortened to SomeonesBtch. . .My X and I are no longer together obviously but I so do like the name so I kept it

My name is Miriam. People call me Mir for short. My husbands name is Luke. We made a joint e-mail account one day and dubbed it Miruke. I loved the sound of it so much I made it my username here.

I have used this screen name in the past. I went to RIT and one of my nicknames is Kat.

me... bcs this where I currently live...pehaps LostinLife would have been more appropriate

I live just outside of "tigard oregon" next to the hills... TigardHills

my name is my name..nothing more..nothing less :)

i changed it one night when i got high i thought it was a cool name to come up with

I wrote about this in one of my first journals, but I thought I would share it here since you asked . . .

One day I was lying on the couch talking to my Daddy. I don’t know how we got on the subject. He told me not to be a shrinking violet, but he said there is no need to be a stink weed either. He said be a Tiger Lily. He was particularly fond of Tiger Lilies, and I am too. They have a rather commanding presence towering over all of the other flowers in the garden, but because they are tall and slim, they don't overshadow all of the other flowers--they don't steal all of the sunlight or the glory.

Tiger Lilies can grow just about anywhere even in the red mud of the Carolinas, and they are resilient--they survive the heat and drought of our summers, the winds and heavy rains that sometimes lay them down flat, and even the rare and unexpected freezes but no matter what they not only come back year after year, but they also multiply effortlessly like weeds.

I love the irony in the name--Tiger Lily. Most people think of tigers as being strong and ferocious and maybe even unpredictable, but they think of peace and calm and tranquility when they think of lilies. You would think the two extremes would have little to do with each other, but I have learned over the years that sometimes it takes the strength and ferocity of a tiger to keep the peace.

So I became Tygerlily~~being a Beeper I can't think of any other name that could capture who I am quite so well.

Once I loved to catch a wave and ride it in. I still love the ocean and beach. not much surfing except on my moods and in life these days.

Chica...a girlfriend or hot chick... yeah, right :)
