Seussical
When I joined orriginally I had another name. But I discovered at the time some folks that were watching it and things went bad. So I created a new one. I have always loved Dr. Seuss. I looked over and saw one of my stuffed cat in the hats and went with mrs.

SONS GONE WILD
Moms goin' crazy
Thanks for this post! It helps to hear everyone's reasons behind their names. When I joined, my "son was going wild" (with drugs, etc.) and I was totally desperate and in a hurry to get help - I think of changing my screen name, but thought it would be confusing. Maybe I'll take a little time and try to find something I like better. Thanks again.

I decided several years ago that I can only handle 1 Day At a Time. . .
difficult child taught me that.

Handling the tweedles has always been an experiment in terror. I learned early on in their placement with us to give kt & wm transition time.
I started wearing 2 kitchen timers - one on each pocket or collar. I'd set the timers depending on who needed to do what. I think I wore those timers for 2 plus years & rec'd many a questioning look when I'd forget to take them off to go out to the store or a psychiatrist appointment.

Diabolique = "diabolical" or something like "she-devil" in French.
"Les diaboliques" is also the title of a favorite collection of stories written by French writer Jules Barbey d'Aurevilly.
What's the French obsession, you wonder? Check my sig

When my oldest son began HS, he insisted that all of his teachers address him as Sven instead of Steven. Then his history teacher gave them an assignment to research and present as a historical figure - he chose Gandhi and referred to himself as Svengandhi. When we switched him to an alternative school, he went back to his real name but I thought his made up name was so cool that I adopted it for this site. I don't use it at any of the other forums I visit because it is so unique and I don't want to be tracked.

This has been a fun post to read, especially from those long timers who started with a name I knew...then got bad and changed it to something else. Come on. Work with me here. It's been more than 10 years. I'm memory challenged. Nan? I never would have put the two together. I need like an Excel spreadsheet or something.
I've always been Abbey. Switched to Deb when I stepped down as administrator, but there was another Deb (ahem) and it got confusing, so went back to Abbey. Recently tried Random Deb, which is very appropriate, but the registration didn't take. Not sure why. Should I ramble some more?

I know that all of you think I'm serious all the time (riiiiiiight!), but I LOVE Mel Brooks films (as well as Monty Python).
In History of the World, he was in ancient Rome and said that "this is NUTS! Do you hear me? N-V-T-S, NUTS!! (you know the whole Roman Numeral thing!).
It was sooooo fitting when you look at my kids!

Yeah, mine is not too original. I am a mama, and I feel crazy lots of the time. Sounds better than psycomama, or whack job mom

I'm a fan of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, my grandfather was a diehard baseball fan, and it rubbed off on me.
As for my avatar, TNT Rescue is the company that makes Jaws Of Life and other Hydraulic tools we used at the Vehicle Rescue Competition this summer. They got us 3rd place, so I saw it fit to represent them.
