Several years ago I became disabled. Nothing too serious but just enough so I could not continue working. I'm not old enough to retire, say nothing of the money situation! Depression depression oh woe is me!
One day my son brings me his old computer and started to teach me a few things.
It's a miracle! There is life after disability!
I played games for several months then one day the son asks, have you tried the internet yet? HUH? That's for geeks and wierdo's isn't it?
Ok, so I get hooked up and visit a site or two. My son tells me about this site where you can see real animals in Africa come to the waterholes. (This site is a whole other story we might discuss one day.)
To make a long story shorter, I love this site and spend many hours watching and waiting for animals to walk past the cameras. Sometimes because the animals are real it can be a long time between sightings so I poke around on the home page a bit and discover a chat.
Wow, can I do this too? I visit the chat room as a guest a few times finally deciding I must have a nickname. What to choose?
Spousie is not likeing my decision to talk to these strange people via chat room internet. He is quite sure someone will sneak over here kidnap me. I assure him I will choose a non gender name and I won't tell anyone my real gender.
So now what to choose that won't be a giveaway? I know, a sound! Sounds don't have a gender right? Snap? crackle? pop? Wait a minute, that's a cereal! How about buzz? Ya! Buzz it is.
