Thanks for all the laughs.

I use mine in many places... it's from where I live, what I aspire to be and the year I made up by new name.

Sans peur is French for "without fear"... During my commercial fishing years it was a nickname I was given by other fishermen after four days riding out hurricane force winds 90 miles offshore..(45 foot waves), but some others just called me crazy....I think both may have been right.

Default My Username

My husband and I are both named Pat, so that's the Pats part, and we have two cats.

Any questions?

We also have a dog and some fish, but they just didn't fit into the funny rhyme thingy. My given name, Patricia, apparently was already taken. Too bad. It's so much easier for me to remember!

Kitsune is Japanese for 'fox'. The mythical fox like to play games, or tricks.

That's one way to look at it, but really it's about two things I like a lot. Myths and games. I enjoyed the stories about the mythical kitsune, so I've been using it as a username or in my username for years.

Mine is a play on a pokemon name. To be exact, the Mudkip. There's an internet joke surrounding it and some friends and I were making up fake names (that were based such jokes) and I came up with this one. and now I use it for a lot of things.

and now I feel like a HUGE nerd.

Mine has sad origins.

I belong to another forum for stepfamilies and someone had a cute name called Tumblebug.

He lost custody of his kids and stopped coming to the forum, a friend told us what happened.

Right after we lost custody I started looking around for another forum (forums distract me from my pain) and I joined this one and used the name Tumblebug as a tribute.

My very first post here was about our loss.
