Ah. Got confuzzled there. Hmm. Still, I've never been there, either.

I've decided that I'm going to write a weblog post wherein I simultaneously marvel that people think I have sockpuppets and bemoan the fact that I have no sock puppetry.

Because I had no idea people were running around accusing other people of being me. Really. And I have no idea why it would happen.

"you speak French with a Spanish accent."

Huh. When I took french (and already knew spanish), my teacher asked me if I had learned french in Quebec, because of this. Of course, I pointed out that if I"d learned French already, I wouldn't be in Intro French, but...

I have one pseud, mostly. Sometimes someone else already has my pseud. So I add "-girl" or "-grrl" or something to it.

But I am getting quite confused by all these changing pseuds!

I think I would have been up shit creek if I'd tried to find a town in New Jersey that starts with Vee.

Vernon? Verona? Veehauken!

OK, that's stretching it a bit.

I pretty much have two pseuds that I use. Hil R. is an actual nickname plus a letter that I can sort of claim as a last initial, though it isn't the one I actually use. Then I've got another that's just sort of derived from my actual name in a weird, roundabout logic that doesn't really make much sense unless you know all the intervening steps, so it doesn't really look much like "Hil R." at all. Right now, that one's just used for my LiveJournal, though I've used it for a few other random things before.

I'm s.a. in real life and online. It's technically a nickname, not a pseud, but there's no distinguishing factor between RL and net.

Really? So your friends call you ess ay? That's pretty cool.

Yup. Actually, my best friends love it because there's this thirty second confusion where they're trying to figure out if my name is the Spanish word for friend (ese), a paper (essay), or they just do that "Wha-huh?" face. That's the best one.

"ese" is Spanish for "friend"? I thought it was Spanish for "that".

I go by ita, serenada (my capoeira name), and capoeira_girl. So anyone that knows me can tell it's me. I've also started going by rank_tyro. Can't quite explain that one. Wait, no, then there's velvet and the derivatives.

I'm not as straightforward as I'd hoped.

I have been told that I speak French like a Swiss goatherder. Also that I have the cutest little Parisian accent. What can you do?

"ese" is Spanish for "friend"? I thought it was Spanish for "that".

Hm. All I know is: "Hey! Ese!" Slang?

I have to tell someone. RivkaT just told me she likes my stuff.

squeeeeeeeal!

OK, done with the fangirlishness.

Slang. "Hey, you there!", more or less.

"Friend" is "amiga" or "amigo".
