I'm either Victoria or Vikki depending on the era(s) from which you know me. (If Vikki, then you probably remember my last name as Townsend. And no I didn't marry an Italian. Long story).
Or you may be under the impression my last name is Seibert, which it isn't, although my husband's is. After we got married, I did go for a trial run of using his last name... but since everyone wants to mispronounce Seibert as "SEE-BERT" (in Jeff's case, it's pronounced "SIGH-BERT"), and since my first name is Victoria, I ran into a great number of people who thought it would be insanely clever to say, "Oh, Victoria Seibert. Like Victoria's Secret! Bwa ha ha ha ha." And while that was funny the first three hundred or so times I heard that joke, I really couldn't go through the rest of my life being synonymous with lingerie catalog. (Adding insult to injury: At the time, Victoria's Secret seemed to only carry brassieres up to the cup size of C, which I haven't fit into since 1988 or thereabouts. Sure, they've since expanded their line a bit, but still.)
ANYWAY, I do most of my online writing at my blog, Anachroclysmic . You can also visit me on Facebook, or follow me on Twitter .
