my handle here is the same it is everywhere else. if you ever run into another kafitty, on pretty much ANYTHING - that's me! And for the record, it's KUH-fitty, not KAA-fitty. That's how my brain pronounced it when i first saw it, and that is how it shall stay.
how i first saw it, however...that's a story.
the short version: went to sign my name (Kait) on a note to a friend in 9th grade Spanish class. When i signed it real quick, it looked like it said, "Kafit." i had one of those no-laughing-at-a-funeral moments and COULD NOT STOP GIGGLING. My teacher ended up making me leave the classroom, and i ended up in the hallway in fits of laughter for the rest of the class period.
Naturally, we told all of my friends this story, and they started calling me Kafit, and then feminized it into Kafitty. i'm only 5'2", so sometimes i'm "Itty Bitty Kafitty"...but no worries, i am NOT part of a certain committee...
so i've been using it since around 2000 as my screennames/user handles/emails etc., and have around a 99.99% success rate at registering it. Pretty nifty, huh?
