The Name Game

Welcome to Electric & Eccentric

I use this thing mainly for collecting written (or in this case, typed) bits of data such as my wishlist and links of interest in the same digital space. It's not a journal or anything of the sort, but it may contain the occasional coherent essay about the stuff that matters to me.

This introductory entry is, appropriately enough, about the name (and URL) of this thing. How and why I chose them. For the folks most likely to be reading this, both are obvious.. but bear with me, here. I'll explain anyway.
ELECTRICITY is my heart, my soul, my vibe, my energy. I am electric, I always have been, and I always will be. This shocking form of energy has always defined my soul. I've known this since infancy. Electricity is what I'm all about. I am unhappy without it: T-storms please me, blackouts depress me. Bzzzap!

As for the 'Eccentric' part? Well, most of the people who know me would tell you I'm a rather strange chick. An oddball of sorts. I've got some fairly unique views, tastes, and ideas. So I'm known to be rather eccentric.. or so I'm told, anyway!

As for the URL, thirty-four happens to be my lucky number. Yes, I have one. Silly, ain't it? It hasn't changed since early childhood. It's just always been a number I associate with good things, including one of my very favorite things. The 'million volts' part of the URL is already explained by the electricity bit.

So there you have it.
