My AIM name is K6M132. IM me anytime, as there is usually nobody good online now that everyone in college is on summer break. I can also be quiet at times, especially if I have no idea who you are. Once college starts back up I will be on 24/7 🙂 ---

AIM: **Shreppled Ingot** Please identify yourself as a doper. [gripe] Can you believe how annoyed I was when I tried to register this as my SDMB name only to be told that it was already taken!? Who (besides me) is a big enough freak to use that name? [/gripe] ---

See, that’s just one of the many things we do here at the SDMB. We bring people together. The thing is, I deleted almost all of the SDMB people from my buddy list a long while back. So if you posted your name in here before… pleeeeeeeeease do it again! (Unless, of course, you’re avoiding me and don’t want to encourage me. :p) ---

**NotWithoutRage** , your Yahoo handle is, if I’m not mistaken, from the song “A Heart Full of Love” from _Les Miserables_. If I’m wrong…well hell, it’s an identical lyric. My AIM is I Hamadryad. Yeah, like I Robot. Only that’s not why I picked it. But I don’t mind the association. Fair warning: I am anything from standoffish to totally hostile when IMed by strangers, so if you message me and my response is “…and you are?” don’t be offe…oh, be offended if you want. Your call. ---

Big surprise here - FairyChatMom on AIM I’ve got 4 on my Buddy list - my husband, one old friend, and 2 Dopers (only one of whom chats regularly) - but I’m always up for conversation. And if I say I’m busy, chances are I’m talking dirty with my spouse… 😃 ---
