A slightly-embarrassing personal notice.

[tenlittlebullets]

Have just realized that half of you probably have no idea what on earth to call me, seeing as (a) I'm not in the habit of being called by my first name online, and (b) I change my handle so often that plenty of people who've known me a while probably have whiplash.

And as much fun as it is to be mysteriously unnamed, it gets bloody confusing and downright inconvenient at times. So if you need a mental point of reference, any variation or spelling of Ann or Marianne (Anne? Marian?) will do. Not that I'll kill you and throw your body to the swine or anything if you keep calling me [Schatten / Erik / Jen / etc], it just gets weird to have people ask for my name and have to say "er... can I get back to you on that?" So across the board I'm defaulting back to Ann.

Holy shit, a feminine moniker. Can corsets and petticoats manicures and shopping sprees be far behind? (Oops, I already wear corsets and petticoats. That won't work. Curse my gender-bending fun.)

I love that name!!!

Good-oh! I missed that name... Even though I've totally got used to calling you Erik now. Ah well. I'll probably be undecided for a while and then decide on one of the two :p

Hehe, I got all happy and nostalgic when I learned I can call you Ann again.

Ah, good times. Good times and whipped cream.

Mmmm, whipped cream and endless RPGs.

I just think of you as "Your Majesty". It's a courtesy I extend to all my f-list.

... this is an embarrassing hi-i'm-new-on-your-flist-and-also-very-dumb-comment:

I totally thought you were a boy. O_O

Not that it matters, I was just... confused.

...that might be because up till very recently I did all I could to foster that impression.

Gender issues ahoy! XD

Yeah, I was -- I went to your old entries and tried to figure it out from that. Think I've got it now. *Feels dumb*
