why did you pick your name?

[trinity]

Basically we do the Middle Ages kind of like the Cival War re-enactors do...well, the Civil War. We try to recreate the best parts of the Middle Ages and have a blast doing so. Check out www.sca.org for a bunch more info.

[smokey the elder]

My nick comes from a RB cat that had a lot of special needs, Smokey. She became Smokey the Elder when another cat came to me and said her name was Smokey, too!

[Chinadoll]

Chinadoll was a nickname given to me by the ladies in the accounting office of the club I used to work at. They said I looked like one of those porcelain chinadolls.

So, this means you do the whole fire-roasted turkey leg-in-hand thing while wearing swatch watches and Nike shoes?? Just teasing - this actually sounds fascinating - didn't know there was such a thing. One of my best friends and I share a favorite pastime in watching "period" movies and counting the number of "anachronisms"...like how many of the warriors in Ben Hur had Timex watches on their wrists?

I do that too! One of my faves is to catch clocks in the background..and then notice hours pass, according to the clock, but the scene is only ten seconds long...I just never knew it was called anything...hmmmm..

LOL LOL Ack!! Gas!! That's usually my response when the furkids drop a bomb! LOL LOL
I love your screen name though!

I picked wolflady because I love wolves and did a lot of volunteer work with them when I was in college. It was the greatest experience! I'd love to work full time with them someday.
All of my friends started referring to me as the wolf lady and it just stuck.

Yet another reason to engage in Pettalk - it's educational!!

I tried variations of my first name, but they were taken so I ended up with this.
