The very first time I ever went to register for a message board, back in the late 1990s, I tried to get a name that actually had something to do with who I am like, say, "TexasMom" but anything that made much sense was already taken. I'd recently spent some time in Galveston, Texas (which is an island and is where my parents were born and raised) and, while there, had picked up a T-shirt that said "Island Girl" on it. In desperation, I tried that (choosing, for some reason, to make it all one word) and it worked! When I first signed up at the old ezboards (now Yuku) I was told that "Islandgirl" was taken and suggested I add a number to the end of it. "81" is the year I graduated high school. The combination of "girl" in my user name and a number that many assume is my birth year leads a lot of people to assume I'm in my 20s, rather than my 40s, but that honestly wasn't my intention!

No, even though a name with "girl" in it becomes less appropriate for me every year, I have enough trouble trying to remember my various passwords to access files on my work and home computers, ATM machines, door code to office, etc. I just stick with this username (with or without the "81" at the end of it) for every message board I visit.

Whatever would I change it to? GG is a part of my personality! Heck, my best friend's husband tells her "GG's on the phone" Her son thought that was my name for a long time!
