CC, LOL I'm with you!!
At the time, I was barely functioning, so coming up with anything original or meaningful seemed waaaay beyond my capabilities. I used my work computer sign on.
Then, on one of my very first posts someone (maybe Pep?) pointed out that it sounded a little like a too short smurf....oh well whats in a name?

When I was working towards D-day, I felt like I was at an inflection point. I asked myself if I was going to surrender and give up and move on...my answer not today.
Since D-Day and starting recovery I have tried to just get through every day and make that day better than the day before. Still a bumpy road but better than the alternative.

It's a nickname of mine, used by only a select few. The few people that know about it certainly do not come to this website.
Well, I'm 99.9% sure they don't come to this website...
I made it happen..a joyful life..filled with peace, contentment, happiness and fabulocity.

This is just fascinating...it's everything I always wanted to know, plus a lot of stuff I didn't know I wanted to know until I knew it! *ducking bullets, maybe* b0b, you are definitely one of the ones I was curious about. (Who am I kidding? I was curious about everybody!) But I <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> to admit that when I first came on I thought that everyone else had chosen aliases, and you and Mel were about the only ones who had used their real names.

Bellevue Hospital in NYC has a locked ward for insane patients. I don't know why I added the "Belle" after it. I had tried "Belfrey" and "Batty" but they were already taken. I wondered whether I was crazy, felt like I was, and on one occasion my H (well, more than one) told me I was crazy, and that I was supposed to be a church-going Christian, and how could I say the things I was saying ....
Mind you, I was ranting and raving because the sumbeech came home after Christmas carrying a thousand dollar Coach briefcase, carrying it into the house hoping I would not spot it. I went a little nuts ..... because it was a gift from the OW .......
Now Bellevue feels very natural.

You're everyone's hero around here, b0b. In fact, I may change my name to nEak, lol!
To my credit, I did figure - even from day 1 - that Squid was most likely a nickname.

I wanted a name that would tell people my gender since I am often confused whether the posters are male or female. I also wanted a name people could use easily without the need to abbreviate.
To some extent I am a conflict avoider. I therefore found Frank to be a little bit self mocking. I would do better if I spoke more frankly. And finaly, since I often find the age of the poster relevant, I included 57 - the year of my birth.

I started out here as AbandonedDad - but after awhile, I wanted to take out the negative "Abandoned" part, and since I was signing my posts "AD" anyway, I just changed my name to that - plus if you search the net for AD, you'll get hundreds of millions of hits - so it's a bit more anonymous than some other names I might have chosen.

NSYN, " Squid " is a REAL name !! LOL !
When I first met Squid we were in class and we got laughing.
I asked her second name and she said " It's Quinn".
She had a cold at the time so it sounded like she said
"Id Squid".
We laughed, and I loved her then and ever since. My Squid.
I shouldn't be anyone's hero NSNY. Seriously.
