Wow. Clearly I'm not in the know here. I feel badly for whoever is known as "issues with tissues." Not a nice nickname.

Yes, I have issues with tissues!

My name has to be Sparkly because my dresses are never sparkly enough...

No, it was a joke from ANs that she herself started
Hooray! Welcome to SF!

It's OK, she's in on it as was there when it was coined! Long story short, my tossies this year were Kleenex, but because I throw worse than a girl , I enlisted vesperholly to throw them for me. Purple Sparkly saw what she was throwing and said something like, "What is that? Tissues? Who throws tissues as a tossie?" So, I said, "I do! What's wrong with tissues? They're useful!" And she said something to the effect of she'd never seen anything like that, so I said, jokingly, "Do you have issues with tissues?" And then laughter ensued.... haha....

And then ... vesperholly had the brilliant idea of buying huge boxes of Kleenex to throw for Purple Sparkly at her Friday event! And we incorporated the "issues with tissues" line on what we wrote on the boxes (er, at least I did, not sure what vesperholly did!). Anyway, it was hilarious!

So the nickname came from that, and it's all good!

Ahhhhh got it thanks.

And now I know who daises is!

Back on topic, I also hope they make the options for adults either a choreo step or spiral sequence. I know just talking about it on an internet forum doesn't get our wishes heard effectively. Can anybody recommend who/which committees we would need to contact to let US Figure Skating know our preference?

Adult Skating Committee. A bunch of us here are on it, so you're defintiely in one of the right places to make your ideas heard.

No, this year you had sufficient sparkle on your FS dress and your interp dress was very, very shiny.

Too bad your name isn't Purple Sparkly Banana Phone...now that would be sweet.

I had to have more sparkle on my dress. Stormy made me promise and I think she would have hurt me if I didn't. And now she's yelling "Sparkly!" for me when I skate, which is hilarious. I feel like I have a slogan now, I feel special.

I totally forgot about the banana phone.. How is it that a few intoxicated pictures holding an upside-down iBanana phone at the 2009 AN competitor's party forever links me to a banana phone?

Oh, good. Well, if I need to send annoying e-mails to people, just let me know and I will do so.
