Hey ya'll!

I am new to allnurses and just was curious what everyones usernames mean. I know there are previous thread for this but I figured there have been some username changes and new members since then.

As you can see my username is Flightless and its just short for flightless bird AKA penguin which are my favorite animal lol I had a hard time trying to pick a username that was unique but didn't give me away! Haha!

So lets hear it!

Well, my avatar is of my favorite bird (chkickens) but my avatar specifically is of my chicken who is named Jaja. She is a lovely, massive 8 pound Silver laced Wyandotte who happens to be 7 years old (which is somewhat old for a chicken). Anyway, if you look at the picture of her you can see she is shrouded in sunlight. I KID YOU NOT, nearly every time I look at her in my shaded yard there is always a ray of sunlight on her it is so strange, but lovely. Yeah, I kind of went off about my avatar...you asked about user names! littlelimabean is something my husband calls me. BTW, penguins are fantastic!!

Mine's an existential question.

Can I graduate?

On the surface, it was a question about nursing school at a time when I was figuring out my oddness was an actual condition. Underneath, it is a question about my state of being. Can I move on from the state I am in to something better? Can I leave the negative and bitter behind as I move through the complexity of life?

So far, the answer has always been "Yes!" Although, sometimes, it has been "...eventually."

(I have no band experience, sorry. I was one of the closet Trekkie/Star Wars, literary nerds. I like physics jokes and Jane Austen. My brother, however, was amazing on trombone.)

When we were accepted to nursing school, a friend of mine and I excitedly (and jokingly) decided that we were going to be such good students that not only would we get a BSN and RN after our names, but a BNE as well....Best Nurse Ever! :woot:

No, I don't think I'm actually the BNE...but in nursing school, it was an easy username to come up with!
