Every time I've lurked in the past few months I've seen you dispensing quality advice, so I'm glad to have you keeping and eye on me. I suspect I'll be looking for the occasional 2x4 in the next little while.
Now do tell.. why "Grasshopper"? Is this a sensei/grasshopper kinda thing?

Yea, I guess when I started to "get it" according to some of the wise old ones, somebody suggested that "totallymessedup" didn't really apply and that I should choose another, more suitable name. I resisted but then decided to pick the name I most associated with someone who was a permanant student... grasshopper from Kung-fu.
Sorry/nice to see you back, lol and thanks for the kind words.
Ah yes... the early names we choose for ourselves. It's a great symbolic thing when we need to rename ourselves. I always wish that I had named myself something more creative than Anna123, but in my sobbing state while I registered, nothing beyond my name occurred to me.
My first thread was called "Desperately Seeking Reassurance" and I always look back on that sadly/fondly. It's precisely where I was and where I see so many newbies, which is why my heart aches for them. Remembering that feeling is so vivid, yet so distant. Like "I remember that poor girl..."
