Help...need new CC username

Parent Cafe
1

<p>I recently woke up from a bad workaholic stage and realized that part of the healing requires a change in my CC username. I am no longer avoidingwork when I am ■■■■■■■■ the Parents Forum, UCB Forum, and occasional University of Michigan and UCSC jaunts. I’m just doing something relaxing and sometimes interesting, that is not work. (what a revelation)</p>

<p>So, I thought I’d turn to the community to come up with a new username (yes, I know there are rules, regulations, guildelines regarding changing ones username, which I will of course follow)</p>

<p>There are the xxxxmom and yyyyyydad usernames. The good ones all seem to be taken. I could be CALmom, but that would conflict with calmom. My personal favorites are momof2inca (which I always parse as “mom of 2 inca”), MomofWildChild, and concerneddad (sounds, so nurturing).</p>

<p>Maybe a username like the kids sometime have, that has my school and class year, but UCSC76 won’t work as I really graduated in '77.</p>

<p>Other possiblities are “WhatWouldBarbieDo” and “PinkTiara”, as I connect with my inner Barbie. </p>

<p>Any suggestions?</p>

<p>I love coming up with usernames. How about Sweet Cheeks, Puffy Shirt, Everybodys Favorite Mom, Best Mom Ever, or confuse everybody with Childless Mom</p>

3

<p>Well, since you are from CA and seem to be into ‘inner connections’ :slight_smile: - how about CaliforniaDreaming?</p>

4

<p>how about “Child4Sale”. haha. it’s just my little 8 year old bro has a t shirt that says “Sister 4 Sale”. i think its sooo cute.</p>

5

<p>That would be a funny shirt for an infant: Parents for Sale</p>

<p>Avoidingwork,</p>

<p>How could you change your name? It always makes me smile when I see it. Apparently you are not avoiding too much work as you are not a constant patron of sinnners alley :). Come over, pull up a stool tell your tale of woe and after everyone throws back a few we’ll definitely come up with a name for you.</p>

7

<p>Perhaps “workinprogress”?</p>

8

<p>How about “justrelaxing”?</p>

<p>if you must change your name consider*** “justchillin”***</p>

<p>avoidingwork-who_me?</p>

15

<p>I was thinking of maybe AvoidingHousework (as that always applies ;-)</p>

<p>thanks for all the suggestions so far. I just took a quick look today, as unfortunately, I’m actually having ToWork</p>

<p>and after reading sluggbugg’s, maybe AvoidingworkBarbie</p>

16

<p>Heck just live with it…
I got on here thinking I would post ONE message and never post again…and I am stuck with the first name I thought of.</p>

17

<p>This is totally tangential, but I was in Maryland last weekend and saw a guy wearing a t-shirt that said “future ex-husband”. It cracked me up. Maybe you can be “future ex-carpooler” or something to that effect. Or, use a variation of my favorite modified expression, “if it ain’t one thing, it’s your mother”.</p>

<p><em>slackerbarbie</em> :D</p>

<p>slackerbarbie might just get my vote, if we are going to be democratic about this :p</p>
