Adventures with Dr. Lady Cutie Troublemaker

You may be wondering about the nicknames I’m using for myself. I was
given the nickname “Lady Cutie Troublemaker of the Midwestern Lands”
ages ago on Tribe.net, the social networking web site on which I
am extremely active. It seems to have stuck, and people who know me
well generally say that it is an ideal nickname for me. I’m moving
away soon, so I’m dropping the Midwestern Lands part. Plus, it’s such
a mouthful that way!

“Proactive Busybody” was a term given to me by my ex-husband,
Hamilton. It isn’t an insult at all. At the time he said it, he was
smiling. I’m actually quite happy with the description because it’s so
very accurate! I think maybe he and I were talking about planning a
trip or something, and I was probably saying how much I liked doing
stuff like that, and he probably said that it was OK with him that I
planned it, because I was such a “proactive busybody.” 😀

Sometimes I use “Sparky” as a nickname. This was given to me by
Hamilton as well, but he got the idea from an e-mail I received from a
professor. I had sent an inquiry to this professor some time after he
had left this university. In his response, he said that he remembered
me well, and that I had always added a spark to his class.

Now you know!

Me and “Monkey” 

Previous Comments

Hee hee! Here’s a silly monkey, and here’s a funny monkey. Getting the funny monkey was no easy task. They had removed it from the site, so I ended up IMing this random guy at that company and talking him into reposting it!

Here is the transcript:

Michael says:
hello, and who might you be?
ÄßÞΎ says:
I am in the US, and I have a silly question about your web site.
ÄßÞΎ says:
My name is Abby.
Michael says:
hi there abby
Michael says:
ask away
ÄßÞΎ says:
Hi. I’m wondering what happened to this page: www.smebbdesign.com/little_red_monkey.html
ÄßÞΎ says:
It was linked all over the Internet, and a friend of mine and I were looking for it last night, and I noticed there was a way to IM you! Hope this isn’t too very annoying.
Michael says:
well, it got deleted in some mixup, and yeah, it was getting over 2000 hits a day, which is more than what i can say for my web site
Michael says:
i can upload it again
ÄßÞΎ says:
At least it was pulling the people in!
ÄßÞΎ says:
Yay! Do that! The world would thank you. Did you create it?
Michael says:
i wished i did
ÄßÞΎ says:
All of my friends and I sing that all the time, and we’re all grad students in Indiana! I love the Internet!
Michael says:
sweet 😛
ÄßÞΎ says:
I know!
Michael says:
2 seconds, i hope i still have it somewhere
ÄßÞΎ says:
Excellent. I should have saved it when it was up before.
Michael says:
aha! there it is
Michael says:
uploading now
ÄßÞΎ says:
Yay!
ÄßÞΎ says:
Fab! Where are you in the UK?
Michael says:
in the north east, County Durham
Michael says:
land of the prince bishops
Michael says:
www.smebbdesign.com/little_red_monkey.html
ÄßÞΎ says:
Oh. Never been there. I’ve been to the UK a lot, but never up north. Nice people from up there, obviously. Thanks so much!
Michael says:
lol
Michael says:
you’re welcome 😛
ÄßÞΎ says:
Yay! Now I can sing this ridiculous song over and over and annoy all of my friends some more. I’m sure they will want to write to you to thank you personally.
Michael says:
lol 😛
ÄßÞΎ says:
It’s good that you put it in the original location so everyone can find it. If you know the designer, thank him or her for me! Thanks for your help.
Michael says:
i will and you’re welcome
ÄßÞΎ says:
Yay! Have a great day.
Michael says:
you too 🙂

OK, I didn’t get that nickname “Lady Cutie Troublemaker” for nothing! Nor was I called a “proactive busybody” for nothing. I earned that shit!

If you’ve forgotten or never knew, I grew up with a very special monkey named Monkey given to me by Carl Mahoney when I was two years old! Check out the picture above.
