God help me...
Friday, January 3rd, 2003 10:53 amI sent in my Arisia reg today, for me and Matthew. (He specifically asked if he could come along. Aww. :-)
But that's not the part that scares me. It's that, for my badge name -- rather than the straight-up "Erica" I've always had -- I bit the bullet and put "chanaleh@livejournal".
(So what, you ask? It's WAY FRICKIN' GEEKIER to use a badge name that isn't your given name, that's what! I am appalled by what this impulse says about how far I have traveled down this shadowy path. Since this is my sixth or seventh con already, I should just come to terms with it, but it's going to take me a couple extra minutes. :-)
