I'm amusing myself with anagrams. (I identified completely with Tony in The Robber Bride, because I habitually check to see what things look like backwards, too.) So let's see what mischief I can wreak upon my Friends list. (This is not mockery of anyone's choice of username--I want to be explicit about that. This is just how my mind works.)

This started with elisem, because I noticed that doing that backwards produces Mesile, which is really a pretty cool name.

( And then I started exploring. )

truepenny, of course, just does Ynnepeurt, which looks like a villain out of the Chanson de Roland or Christine de Pisan or Marguerite de Navarre. I can handle that.

[ETA: And sufficient fiddling around with my husband's nom de blog, The Minister of Hardware (erawdrahforetsinimeth), produces Nefethredais Mirrorthaw. And Mirrorthaw is just too good not to use.]

So if you see yourselves being referred to by weird anagrammatic names, don't be alarmed (and if it pisses you off, just tell me and I'll quit).
