A proud member of the “Oregon Trail Generation” and mother of a millennium baby. I often find myself on the net coding, reading, learning, or conversing with friends, family, and strangers. Sometimes helping them with their daily battles and finding resolutions to troubles, other times having a grand time just laughing at little things on the net.
Naanad has been an integral part of my life since I started writing her life story in 1996 for a creative writing class in High School. Without her, I don’t think I’d be anything I am today. In early 1996 I started chatting in a role-playing chat room for Vampires. Being the character’s story was along a similar theme, but not quite, I decided to use her name online for my chat handle.
From that day on, I became a hinge for many people. The solid point in a door is that no matter how it goes, it has to be there for the door to be a door. Naanad and its acronym was an easy to remember name, and unique in the English-speaking world, so I became easily located, I have many accounts across the net, and have kept the email address for “notifications” frequently updated. So if someone from my old chatting days needed to find someone, they looked for Naanad, and likely she knew how to find them.
There are a few people I still seek to this day, but I accept I can’t be the best cyber stalker out there, at least I hope they know I’m thinking of them and that they are doing well.
Since then, I’ve gone on to finish with a BA in college, solidifying my love for computers, despite an early childhood hatred for them. I have added multiple languages to my skills list that are nearly unusable in my current regions of residence.
But I love them nonetheless.

My policy on messages from unknown persons has changed. It used to be only in very rare cases have I not added people or welcomed communications from people, but are now no longer accepted. If I don’t know you, you aren’t a visible friend of a friend or following my profile by the time I look at yours you’ll simply be placed in the “disregard” pile. You can thank a sad racist b*tch from NYC who thought he was cute playing games for this change in policy.
———————————-
I will RARELY REQUEST people to add me. You are always welcome to follow/request me to add you. If I know you, I’ll look into getting you added. If you’re getting a request from me and you didn’t ask me to, I either REALLY like you as a person or we have a bond I think justifies a requests. If neither apply, my account might be hacked.

When ever I hear sirens, I say a little “prayer” and this is very close to what I say every time: “May their pain be minimal, recovery swift and sure, and for any who who didn’t make it, they suffer very little.”

♣I am an enigma to all, known to few, loved by some and hated by many.
♣I am like taking a new medicine… Exposure to me should be done in slowly incrementally increasing dosages to avoid side effects which can include drowsiness, love sickness, weird/lack of dreams, and other very disorienting effects!
Who I am out of the mouths of those who know me well:
♠You’re a legal drug that needs a LONG warning label! ♡ Chris
♠Little miss nuke-them-all ♡ Rich
♠Miss Phil (instead of Dr. Phil) ♡ Anelise
♠Lollipop full of psycho ♡ Russ
My Philosophy: Была не была! Russian for: Come what may be! (Will be not will be… Basically what ever happens, happens. Or as they translated, come what may be.)
My Religion: Let “God” be the judge of who is doing wrong or right in the eternal’s eyes. Let man be the judge if you are infringing on another man’s rights to choose his own path. But I will avoid judging another person because I can only hope for them to see the error of their ways before they hurt others.
Who am I? I often end up people’s shoulders and emotional support. I don’t charge for my advice, but I will tell you what I see based on the information before me. And sometimes, IT WON’T BE WHAT YOU WANT TO HEAR. If you don’t want to hear it, don’t talk with me about things, otherwise you will hear my thoughts, especially if I think you need to. (There is now a $20 fee for disregarded good advice and me ending up right.)

Personal Wisdom’s I’ve Come To Live By:
♦Life isn’t a matter of what is the right or wrong choice. It’s the strength to determine and follow through with the ones you will regret not doing more later in life.
♦Never miss a chance to say, “You matter to me.” Never know when they will be gone.
♦You won’t get out of life alive, so make the best of what you have and find what is important to you.
♦It is not how we live life, but how we continue to live after taking in our own death, that defines who we are. Because those are the ones truly living.
♦Sometimes, no matter what you say people won’t like it.. So just say it and say it loud and proud!
♦It’s not the severity of the betrayal that hurts, but the amount of trust lost when a situation occurs that makes it hurt so bad.
♦ANYONE can be harmless, but to be GOOD, you need to choose to not do harm when you could.
♦Change is inevitable, improvement however is neither guaranteed nor objectively assessed. ~Trey Bushart
♦I swear, talking to Dev is like trying to get a good wish from a genie. If you don’t phrase things exactly right you end up with a solid gold head or something. ~Team Lead at work (ZR)
I am prejudiced against ONE type of person.. a “willfully ignorant” person. I.E. Someone who has the means and capabilities to learn and chooses not to and remain in their ignorant state because they don’t want to learn they might actually be wrong about a topic. Those who are ignorant because of financial or situational, I cannot fault them for because they do not have the means to learn that the information provided to them is/might be wrong.

♥I want love with a love deeper than love as I refuse to hate.
♥I have sought to gain eyes from omnipotent skies.
WARNING: If you are married/dating and you have a jealous counterpart, please understand any sign of this being directed at me WILL PROMPTLY cause me to remove you as a friend. I am not interested in tolerating drama for ANYONE!
