So one day this dude and lady were board and decided to go to Ikea to pass some time. Ikea is a pretty cool place to be, all those do it yourself swedish furniture sets to play with. Nobs and pegs and boards Oh My!
Unfortunately, after a while, even inserting Peg A into Slot B can get pretty boring.
Nine months after that fateful trip to Ikea, I was born.
And, really? That’s about it.
Unless. did you want to know how I picked the Name Bluepaintred? It;s not as random as you might have thought!

Have you ever wondered how people pick their screen names? I know I have.
Some are easy. Like One Tall Momma … She’s a mom and six feet tall! But what about all of the others? OTM is the only name I can readily see the reasoning behind it.
And My Screen name? What on earth is a Bluepaintred? A food? A TV Show? A sex toy? Seriously.. Was I on Crack when I picked it? Come on, I know you’ve wondered. Well the truth is…I never inhaled.
About four years ago I was introduced to Yahoo Chat by my BFF Kiss. They were Hella amusing. The fights we would start, the caps lock screaming, the swears, the death threats…ahh good times. The first ID I tried was Weirdangle69. But it was taken. So I tired roughly thirty thousand other ID’s that were all more outlandish then the last. All taken.
At my wits end, I looked around the computer desk, searching for inspiration. At this time, Rainbow Man was most enthralled with Spiderman. He had a white dresser and I was in the middle of painting it like so :
What do you suppose I saw sitting on my computer table? Bluepaintred was born.
