[I got this from
lysana.]
My journal is called _____ because _____.
My subtitle is _____ because _____.
My friends page is called _____ because _____.
My username is ____ because _____.
My journal is called "Exuberantly Unnecessary" because it feels right--I try for exuberance, and much of what I do is luxury rather than necessity, LJ often included in that. It's often easier to be exuberant about the non-necessities than about the necessities: even the pleasant ones, like getting enough sleep, let alone the irritating (like laundry) or basically uninteresting (like taking vitamins).
My subtitle is, um, hang on...Objects of Dubious Provenance, but I don't remember why.
My friends page is (as of a couple of hours ago) called "Helping Redbird Save the Spotted Subjunctive" because I liked the phrase "save the spotted subjunctive" when
stakebait used it elseweb, and it seemed a good idea to include my username in the name of my friends page.
My username is Redbird because I have a tattoo of a cardinal (Cardinalis cardinalis, the bird, but it is so called because the bright red plumage of the male cardinal reminded someone of a cardinal's robes; the first English-speakers in this part of the world called them simply "redbird"), and when I was looking for a username on Eldermoo several years ago, I happened to think of that. And I like it, and kept using it.
