I love Prince ...
However, the reality is I simply grew tired of people misinterpreting what the abbreviation stood for.

I take it Prince was your favorite singer once upon a time and you're living out some strange fantasy?? :) We certainly won't confuse you with anyone else!

It was too much effort, mysteria ...
especially for a blog that was (rough estimate) a third as popular as this one.

I really hadn't given it that much (i.e. any) thought, Rcky ...
Who knew a simple name change could be so complex?
You know, maybe I should ask my therapist if this is okay ... to make sure I'm ready to take such a big step.

After all, once the name is changed, it can't be altered for a month. Thus, I'll be stuck with it.

and MP,
Could you not use that pinky/magenta color in stuff? It's too much like those pint, see-through panties that add some color to what you see when you see through them, but your can't see them themselves. Kind of like what the
~ when it gets used with an
n. Have you flipped out, or is it me?

Ms ~~--wha,
Well, that should get some attention. I like it, but how is it pronounced? The
~ over an
n in Spanish changes the way that the
n gets pronounced, but the
~ doesn't get pronounced. Now I don't know what to do. Tell me how to pronounce it so I know what thread to get for the screws that I need to put my head back on. Thanks. I needed something like this.

Well, Prof ...
when I returned to Blogit (after my long hiatus), I transformed my previous username into initials (basically, in an attempt to "avoid detection").
Of course, once I changed it ...I immediately remembered the better and more accurate idea (for a name) that former blogger Hemlocker had suggested, like, a thousand years ago. Which is what my name will now soon be, sometime tomorrow.
It's really not all that major a change, anyway.
