Right then. The
Q:Luva, what do you look like?
A: I look a lot like this:
Wow. Yeah. I look a lot like that. If that wasn’t a picture of me, I’d be really freaked out by the resemblance.
Q: Luva, what's your real name?
A: Kelly. My middle name is something Irish. My last name is something else Irish. Here, I am known as Kelly, or often, Luva. I have many code names the world over, which are known to a very select few.
Q: Awesome! Like Kelly "Don't-Hate-Me-Because-I'm-Beautiful" LeBrock! Or like Woody's girlfriend Kelly on "Cheers!" Or like Kelly Bundy from "Married With Children!" Is that it?
A: Exactly. Exactly like all of those Kellys.
Q: Can I call you "Kelly?"
A: Um ... Yeah? It's my damn name.
Q: Kelly, wherefore "Luvabeans?"
A: Darling, before I answer this question, you are aware that "Wherefore" means "why" and not "where," right?
Q: ...
A: RIGHT?
Q: Yes'm.
A: Good. Moving on.
Ahhh, the eternal question. "Wherefore 'Luvabeans'" indeed. You kids are so cute.
In many ways, you may as well be asking "Wherefore Santa Claus" or "Wherefore Josef Stalin!" 'Tis true, the username "Luvabeans" has become an umbrella term of sorts, has grown to such awesome proportions that the mere mention of it calls to mind a myriad images and emotions! Luvabeans is no longer just a name, but a whole idea.A meme! I’m a meme! At long last!
(See the list of suggested reading for further evidence-a-go-go of my undeniable POWER and INFLUENCE!)
Now... should I name my meme Luvaism, Luvabeanism, Luvabeansism, Beansism … Whatchyouthink? I mean, you, as the future ism-ites, should definitely have a say. How about Beannonites?
No, but really … “Wherefore Luvabeans?”
Quite simply, I don’t really know. I made it up. It’s a bunch of syllables that sound pretty together, spelled with a bunch of letters that look friendly and a little spunky. It just kind of came to mind when I was creating my Diaryland account, and – wonder of wonders! – no one else had thought of it. I do rather like beans, though that wasn't the inspiration behind the username. There was no inspiration, other than I think it fits me as well as any melodic nonsensical non-word ever could. Don’t you?
Q: Yes! Do you like to be called “Luva?” Where’d that come from?
A: Oh, I LOVE that! I think it’s the sweetest thing. I’m not the one who made it up, by the way. One of you guys did. Step up and claim your prize!
Q: Speaking of prizes … whats with that “Song Lyric For Nipple Hair” Sweepstakes? It makes me feel kinda squirmy.
A: Yeah, I know. I’m sorry.
Sometimes I include snippets of song-lyrics in my entries, if it seems appropriate or if I happen at the time to be listening to a particular favorite. When I do this, I offer to award one of my nipple hairs to the first reader to correctly identify the song’s title and artist. Further details can be found in Appendix B: LuvaSerials.
So far, the winners have quite graciously declined their prizes. I swear to you, however, that if anyone takes me up on it, I will mail you a nip-hair.
Oh, God. What am I getting myself into?
Q: What do you do for a living, Luva?
A: For a living? Like, to pay the bills? I’m the Executive Assistant (read as: secretary) at a non-profit. I also pretend to be an actress, which, I’ve calculated, has never paid more than $1.25 an hour.
Q: Where do you live, Luva?
A: Chicago. I moved here from Massachusetts in September, 2002.
OK, that’s it for now. Any more really pertinent questions? You can email me at luvabeans@yahoo.com. Because I do care. I really do. You guys rock.
