Initially, my blog was for my family and friends, but as I got more involved with it, I developed an identity as Geeky Tai-Tai. I'm not really geeky per se because I don't know a thing about coding, but I know a heck of a lot more about the internets than my family and friends. Tai-tai, yes, I am technically a tai-tai. It's really a derogatory word for rich, lazy, Caucasian women. OK, I'm not rich, but I am Caucasian and kinda lazy. :0) My mom was quite young when she had me and named me after Paul Anka's song, "Diana". My middle name is Lynn, after an actress, Diana Lynn. I'm very grateful that she chose such a pretty name for me. I've always been happy with it, and I HATE IT when people call me DIANE! I am not Diane, I am DianUH! dorfwads!

And who've seen actual pictures of me. If I'm ever out that way, I wouldn't miss meeting you for the world. Just so you know. I recently met one of the readers of the sex blog. It was...nerve racking and wonderful fun. I do believe you are one of the very few who know my real name. And who’ve seen actual pictures of me.

Yeah. Wow. By accident (my own accident) a few weeks ago a fellow blogger found out my real name. Suddenly, there were no more walls.
