My name is EnjoyingInsanity. It comes from an old joke. A doctor was interviewing a patient and asked if any of their family members suffered from insanity. The patient answered "no they all seem to enjoy it".

When other kids had imaginary friends, I had a very real constellation: orion. Orionova literally means 'Orion's Daughter', and I use it everywhere.

My grand-nephews middle name is Orion....Malachi Orion. My nephew, who is a writer, thought it would be cool to mix biblical history with astrology. (He obviously never saw the movie, "Children of the Corn")

Everyone in my family calls me Mama, but since I'm a big girl, I decided on Big Mama, no affiliation with the character in the movie lol!

What a fun thread! Okay, the easy part is that my first name is Roger, or "Rog". The "ofUlm" part is from a Monty Python character named Johann Gambolputty, whose full name is: Johann Gambolputty-de-von-Ausfern-schplenden-schlitter-crass-cren-bon-fried-digger-dangle-dungle-burstein-von-knacker-thrasher-apple-banger-horowitz-ticolensic-grander-knotty-spelltinkle-grandlich-grumblemeyer-spelter-wasser-kurstlich-himble-eisen-bahnwagen-guten-abend-bitte-ein-nürnburger-bratwürstel-gespurten-mitz-weimache-luber-hundsfut-gumberaber-schönendanker-kalbsfleisch-mittleraucher-von-Hautkopft of Ulm. (Try saying it out loud!) :blink:

On the TV show Dexter, the main character refers to the evil part of himself as his 'dark passenger'. I'm mentally separating the me who wants to be healthy from the dark passenger, that excessively large stomach of mine that has wrapped a fat suit around me. So bye bye, dark passenger.

no onions: because I hate them (they pollute so many dishes) and I am not super creative. :)

I'm the person who will order without onions whether it indicates it or not.

I'm the person who will also say, "I did order that with no onions, right?"

I'm the person that sends salads, sandwiches back if I find and or detect the taste of onion, with the instruction of "make it brand new, please."

*Also no: chives, scallions, green onion, etc. :blink:

*Servers probably love me.

*Fun fact: I can say no onions in 5 languages. I traveled some in a previous job.

Result of biting into raw onion accidentally? Immediate gagging/heaves. :o

I've mellowed somewhat as I've gotten older. :wacko:

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
