tamagotchi is what I started using on mom sites when S23 was a baby. It made more sense back then.

You caught me. Popular misconception is that JD Salinger was a recluse who had passed away. This entire time I have been lurking on CC in plain sight.
As my character Holden Caulfield said;
“I can be quite sarcastic when I’m in the mood.”

I would have given mine more thought if I’d guessed I’d be on CC more than a couple months! 
My kid has been involved in theatre since elementary age. Simply as an extracurricular and never had any intention of pursuing in college, other than as an EC. But at the time I created my account I was the upper school theatre department parent liaison and just went with the nickname I was used to hearing. Oh well.

My brother and I have the same initials. Back in the 80s when you would put your initials in a video game if you got a high enough score me being the younger sibling had to change mine so we would know who got what score. So I came up with something close. Then added the bday.
I have used it a ton on various boards over the years.
