Meme time!
Jan. 3rd, 2007 01:45 pmBusy afternoon today. Going to try for blood donation again this afternoon at four (crossing my fingers that iron count will be high enough; it should be, seeing as I've been taking my vitamins, but you never know) so I can feel like I've earned my One Gallon stuff. Have a psychologist appointment before that at two. Should have an eensy bit of time to lounge around/check "real" mail between the two, but not a lot. Getting (a good deal of) my 'netting out of the way early.
Anyway, I'm somewhat bored, and this is something I've been wondering for a while, so I'mma start a meme!
How do you pronounce your LiveJournal name (or other online handle)? Do you have a different one you prefer and use more often? If so, how is that pronounced? What do you answer to in real life?
This is basically a "How do I address you verbally?" quiz. Because yeah, that's the kind of question that keeps me up at night when I wonder about actually meeting people ^^a And there's a number of you that I do not only want to meet, but may indeed have an opportunity to do so sometime in the future. So, that's what this is here for! ...That, and there's some names I really wonder about. Anyway, steal if you like, answer if you like, yadda yadda yadda.
For the record: "Soh-chan", or, for the more craftily inclined, "Sew-chan"; I will probably answer to it. I'll also answer to my real name (which I don't usually use online as there are too many of us here, though feel free to ask after it), my French class/confirmation name (Geneviève ("Jen-uh-vee-ev")), and possibly even Soc ("Sock").
Edit: ...I leave for a few hours and come back to thirteen replies. Good God +_+ Uh, for the record, considering from what I derived my handle, I guess pronouncing it "Sock-chan" would work as well? *will get right on replying to those now, rly*

No :< If you want my early crap that badly, I'll copy-paste it somewhere and send it to you. The spelling errors, Duke! The spelling errors!

Date: 2007-01-04 09:41 pm (UTC)Weirdest spelling I ever saw was at Taco John's--they take your name and call it when your food's ready. And this person spelled it not with an -ay, not with an -ey, not even with just a -y, but L-I-N-D-S-E-I-G-H. I'm like, "You're making this waaaaaaay too complicated, sir."
*crosses arms and pouts* I wanna read 'em! D:

Okay, fine, I'll do some digging :<<< If you haven't gotten to FF.net already, there's where you can start. If you have, I'll just have to find all of my old *mumble mumble* Gundam Wing *mumble mumble* fics for you. Or at least as many as I can get my hands on. I'm pretty sure all my Pokémon fanfic was lost in my recent room cleaning, though.
