I wish I could

  • Mood: Distracted
  • Listening to: My toilet leaking toilet water on my floor
  • Reading: Birds of America, by Lorrie Moore
  • Playing: Noby Noby Boy
  • Eating: Too much junk food
change my username. I made this account when I was 14 and melodramatic (I would never use the word "sporadic" now except to describe applying minimal sprinkles to a cupcake, but who wants minimal sprinkles?!), I wish I just used my name. ~jenmussari would have been much better in the long run. I've tried to change my username before, you know the deal: making the journal that says "Hey everyone, follow me HERE instead of here!" but it's just not the same after that and I ended up coming back to this account.
Boo hoo hoo.
Who do I have to bake cookies for around here to get past that stupid rule that you can't change your username; you have to create a new account?

Oh good golly, I've done that whole "I'm switching HERE" so many times I'm afraid I've driven my watchers batty.

But I feel for you, I really do. A while back I was so discontented with my name and kept trying to change to another account...it just doesn't feel the same, like you said.

Sorry you're unhappy with your name. :(

Yeah! Only so many watchers follow you to the "new" username. It's just kind of stupid to me that you can't change the username you started with to another username that isn't being used, not even if you say please pretty please or fill out an application form... But whatever, I exist in more places on the internet as myself than just here!

I never looked back when I set up my new account. I've always kinda liked your username though.
:icontheodosius123:
I love this username, and I honestly love your art.

I like your username, it's different.
but I understand the hostility towards one's username.
I hate this one.
I couldn't think of anything when I joined - I didn't even know what I was DOING when I joined!
now it seems annoying, clumpy and childish.
and I bet, like with my real name, no one could pronounce it right.
I have created a new account though - partly cos of the name dilemma, partly to escape unwanted Watchers [in the nicest possible way] and the 'identity' I've made on this account [which I do not like.]
the people I'm going to reWatch on my new account I will note and the rest will be left behind.
I'm going as a soon as I clear out the 1,000's of messages in my inbox here :XD:
the one thing I don't want to leave behind is my faves - so much of my favourite art is in that one little figurative folder.

but I promise that if you move, I would follow you.

. . . or something. :invisible:

True true! Maybe if you baked them something exxxtra yummy they might waiver...

yeah lets just say "actionwolf" was not my best idea for a username either. I really don't like wolfs and action? I have no idea what I was thinking at the time.

but I got no clue how to change the username. Maybe it might involve magic of some kind...

:iconsporadictouchofennui:
Haha me too! I never thought when I started posting doodles years ago that I'd be actually posting work I liked on this account. Your name is definitely easy to remember which is definitely envious :P haha
Best of luck with switching your username! I started a new account called ~mussari but I think I am committed to this one.
Thanks for everything :)
