My username is pixel39 because pixel was already taken, it's been my nickname since high school because there are a million and one Jennifers out there. The 39 was arbitrarily assigned by an ISP, and I've just kept it for various and sundry ids and addresses, especially those that are required to be six characters or longer.
My birth name is Jennifer, my use name is pixel, for the abovementioned reason of a million and one Jennifers (THE most popular girl's name in the US from 1970 until 1984). My birth name, IIRC is what it is because Mom liked it. I do self-refer as Jen, though.
My journal is "Infrequent Lucid Intervals", which is a play on a quote from Don Quixote. Sancho Panza observes that his master is "a muddle-headed fool, with frequent lucid intervals,". Mostly it's because I frequently only make sense to me, or so everyone assures me. I think they're just afraid that if I explain, I might make sense to *them*, and that scares them.
My friends page isn't titled specially either.
My default icon is a b/w shot from a photo shoot I did with the Consort a few years ago. I'm wearing my signature black fedora in it, a hat which I would wear more often if it didn't moosh down my bangs so much.
