I _know_!!! _wail_

It’s a drug in my veins! But check this… barely over 600. I’ve got too much to say, I guess. And you are almost 500, babe… you’re almost the junkie I am.

What happened to the tried and trusted method of asking your fellow Dopers of their opinion on your prospective name change? Poor **Mangetout** hasn’t had a chance to root for Toast Museum or the like.

Actually I’m gonna miss 'ol SanguineSpider. In particular her sig made a deep and lasting impression upon me (SanguineSpider signing off …). Is that why you changed the name, since you don’t sign off any more? 😃

I don’t like spiders… I guess I felt stifled and judged as a scary lil’ thing, I don’t know exactly. New name makes you guess, makes you wonder. I DO need a new sig so maybe you all can help there.

Forgot to mention: congratulations on your name change, anyhow, **NtN**

And what are you both complaining about with your puny 600-ish posts? 😉

Actually I’ve consciously slowed down in recent months, so you may overtake me yet.

Pffffffft! I always thought spiders were cool. East TN isn’t native Nymph habitat, so I don’t know much about 'em. 😛 Hmm … guess we’ll have to come up with a zinger of a sig for **Nine times Nymph** now. Well, anyway …

HIP …

HIP …

HOORAY!!

VIVA **NINE TIMES NYMPH**!!

umm … oops

just add an _ **s** _ to all the times I typed **Nine** above.

Sorry 'bout that **Nines times Nymph**. ☹

I am SOOOOO such a big, embarrassed idiot right now.

It’s a good name either way, but this way adds an air of mystery.

Well I’m a little sad. I’m a severe arachnophobe and seeing the name “SanguineSpider” on a regular basis was serving as a sort of aversion therapy. Sigh.  
Can you elaborate on the reasons for “Nines times Nymph”? Not that I don’t like it of course…
