New username

[jain]

First post from the journal formerly known as sweetrickitten. I forked over the $15 to effect the change after I found my name--the one I'd wanted lo these many years ago when I first created my journal--on lj's list of expunged names. It's very...short; I'm used to having a longlong username by now. But it's also less confusing, and more recognizable as me, and it doesn't reference the popslash fandom, all of which I consider huge pluses. (Not that there's anything wrong with popslash, of course; it's just not where I am right now.)

Plus, it's a religion. Better than changing your user name to Scientologist.

*snerk* And, hey, I'm a vegan--that's not so different from being a fruitarian.

I like it! :)

Thanks!

Way happyful!

And so your account just changed names and it was all very seamless on this end!

Way cool!

[jain]

Yup, it was all exceptionally easy, as far as that goes.

Glad to hear it! I thought it looked interesting--and if I say that about a travel book, you know it must be something special.

Thank you! My old name was complete desperation on my part, as well; I'm sure you'll be quite happy with the change when you get around to it.

got me confused for a while, and I guess I'll be puzzled for several times in the future, as it always happens when smb on my f-list changes name :)

[jain]

Yeah, I hesitated a bit over the change because of the potential confusion, but I thought in the long run this would be better--especially since my penname and my old username had nothing in common, which was in itself confusing.

good luck, anyway.
