About

What's the deal with your nickname? How did you get it? If your nickname is self-explanatory, then tell everyone when you first started using the internet, and what was the first thing that made you say "wow, this isn't just a place for freaks after all?" Was it a website? Was it an email from a long-lost friend? Go on, spill it.

And I never knew
just what to do with you
What it came down to
was I could not undo
The buttons of my skin
and let you in
I thought I knew
what I what I was getting into
A fight for my life
I’d have to win
While you fill my cup again and again
My cup is still full of you my friend

It would be convenient if one could redesign the past, change a few things here and there, like certain acts of outrageous stupidity, but if one could do that, the past would always be in motion. It would never settle down finally to days of solid marble.
