Mine's Beautiful, because that's who I am, inside and out.

You are what you tell yourself you are, not what your A tells you.

How about you?

How'd I pick my name? hmmmmmmm - multiple reasons -

A "blue moon" is a semi-rare occurance - one to take note of -

Blue has been my fav color ever since I can remember
it's also the color of 'sad'

I absolutely *love* the moon herself and the lore surrounding her - feels very spiritual and magical to me

when my son was first learning to spell (20+ yrs ago) - he was thrilled with the fact that 'son' was also spelled 'sun' - he has always been son/sun and I became moon/mom.

*laughing*
I can never just give a *simple* answer can I!?!?

Blessings,
Blue

Don't have, don't want, can't stand cell phones, and will resist until the bitter end.

I may be the last of my species on the planet, at least if the marketing is to believed.

Ever hear the band Fourplay? I love Jazz. But to be fair, right now my car has CDs from AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, Brand X, Yellow Jackets, Sarde, Rippingtons, Jean Luc Ponty, Happy the Man, Jeff Beck, Steve Morse, Dixie Dreggs, Jethro Tull, Kansas and I even have two radio presets on my sons favorite Hip Hop stations, and I kinda like it! LOL!!! I should change my handle to whackymixman!

I shold point out that it was Minnie the Minx, not Minnie Mouse. I don't think anyone I could call me a mouse, even in my darkest times.

I use to play computer games and Cynay was my game name.

I met someone with that name and thought it beautiful... so I snitched it and I have been Cynay every since online.

"Friend of Bill" is an expression that members of AA use when refering their association to Bill W., the founder of Alcoholics Anonymous.

Although I am not alcoholic or a member of AA, AA reached out alot of hands to me early in my recovey, and still do, when I attended a ton of open meetings. AA also was the foundation for Al-Anon in their gift of the steps and traditions to us.

So....I am forever indebted to Bill W.

I was just going to use my real name - Jo - but the name had to be more than 2 letters so it became JoJo. That is also what my sister calls me. Her name is Julie and her nickname is (you guessed it) JuJu. Aren't we original?

Jo
