slipery handles

Today I leared that a friend of mine changes her IM handle every time she switches jobs. That's nothing, she changes emails every time a relationship ends.

I don't know why or when she started doing this, but the more I think about it, the more sense it makes.

Someone at Berkeley once remarked to me that she found the idea of not changing one's name to mark major changes in one's life weird. She was a Native American woman, and apparently the practice of her nation (if I knew which one it was then, it's gone now) was to have several names over the course of one's life.
