So, as I’m sure most internet users know, it is hard to come up with an original user name for all of the sites that can be signed up for out there. Without having to resort to having a name like “george123.” I had been wanting to have my own domain name for awhile and none of the names I came up with were original or creative or even available. Not wanting to put my real name out there, I just kept brainstorming. I kind of wanted something with “chick” in it because I tend to refer to other females as “chicks.” I have no idea why, except that I am a product of the 70′s.
I was trying to think of something that had a little something to to with me, but “fat chick” or “mama chick” or “short chick” were all just a little too common and a little too… well, something. I have lived in the Chicago suburbs most of my life, so I am pretty suburban. Although I detest malls and think that for the most part the ‘burbs offer nothing along the lines of culture or entertainment. The main activity for those that live in the ‘burbs is either shopping or eating. But, there is no getting around the fact that I am a “suburban chick.” I like going to the city occasionally, but it overwhelms me sometimes. I love the country, but the lack of jobs and opportunities makes it an undesirable place to live. So here I am, in the suburbs. Probably for life.
I was very surprised that “suburban chick” had never been thought of by anyone else, but it must not be a badge anyone would wear with pride. I have been able to use it at any web site I have ever wanted to sign up for. So, if you’re out there in cyber-land and run into a “suburban chick”, chances are it’s me.
