Panache, the not-so-hot guy with the smokin’ hot partner.

Seriously, I’ve been referred to this way, with less-flattering language.

I have always wanted to be a nerd. I was never able to really grasp the math.

I am Nzinga the Student.

I have a poetry group. I teach lil’ inner city kids pro-black poetry. (very poor poetry that I write myself, but the magic is in their delivery).

The kids all have “The” names.

My daughter is Hetep the Hubble

My god son is Tislam the Telescope.

I’d probably end up with eleanor the rigby. \<sigh\>

It should be Eleanor the Magnificent Queen of All She Surveys and Whose Beauty and Grace Know No Bounds, but you can call me Eleanor for short.

It has been The Fabulous Dedra for over 5 years… It started as an email address and spread like mad… Now all my friends and coworkers call me that. It is kind of nice to be called Fabulous all the time. People ask “how are you” and I say “Fabulous!”

**olivesmarch4th** the Bleeding Heart

Take it as a positive or negative; it’s indisputably me.

When I’m using my real name, though, I’m Christy the Empress. The Empress is pleased with this thread.
