Some More Definitions

[emanix]

.

Emanix (noun, fem.): 1. one who emanates. An originator and creator of things. 2. One who puts out.

(The latter not 100% accurate, at least, not to just anybody, but I couldn't resist the pun!)

Polyamorist (n): one whose life is characterised by a set of complex overlapping calendars and scheduling conflicts and, to a lesser extent, multiple loving relationships. (from bminstrel link)

The latter seems particularly apt for me (apart from a general feeling that the word 'polyamorist' makes something that I feel is an innate part of my identity sound like a career choice - I prefer 'polyamorous person'). Back from a week in Thailand which I left for straight after helping out with Polyday, now recovering from jetlag and looking in despair at a to-do list that stretches on into infinity. Posts will happen though. When I can fit them in between my other scheduling conflicts, that is!

In the meantime, how would you define the meaning of your name or username, if it was up to you?

Hmmm ... comfy chair was of course nicked from Monty Python when my preferred username wasn't available, but maybe

Comfy Chair: a nice place to be, easier to get into than to get out of

I always loved bminstrel's polyamory definition, although, having seen his impossibly complex calendar, I'm sure it's about to develop sentience.

Well "BMinstrel": I wanted something that reflected the side of me that exists outside of work and conformity. Something artistic... something that had a light-hearted, musing, wandering sort of feel. Minstrel was gone, so I went for Plan B.

My calendar is not only sentient, it has its own LJ. I suspect it posts rude things about me.
