So, how'd you get your LJ username?

Long long ago, AOL had a username length limit. I couldn't find a good combination of my name or interest, etc. So my brother and I resorted to thinking of things in Latin, which we were both taking. It means "Sweet Voice," although it's improperly declined to make it fit.

I have an extensive background in Ki-Aikido plus a smattering of tai chi, meditation, and yoga. Before I had an LJ visgoth made a reference to my being "professionally serene". When I decided to start an LJ he suggested the name.

Well, at the time I started my LJ, I was in the process of building a marshmallow gun. It was all I thought about, day and night. I know, I know. I'm a dork. I wanted King Marshmallow, but there is a length limit. So I got out the old thesaurus and searched for a synonym for king. Found it, too. From that day to this, I am Don Marshmallow, King of all Fluffiness.

So how did the gun turn out. Sounds kinda bad ass to me!

Unfortunately, it didn't. That's what happens when you have big, big plans and no, no money.

I thought typing backwards while drunk was funny once.

it was the first thing I typed that wasn't too long for the character limit. I thought it was going to be too long, so I was kind of surprised. I was just thinking random things and the line from the song was one of them.

Everytime I hear that song, I think of you!
