I'm a 30 something year old, live'n in Winnipeg, Manitoba. I'm in
a long term relationship with my highschool sweetheart, Lucutis. We
live smack dab in the middle of downtown Winnipeg. It's fantastic
being on the 12th floor of our apt building. The view at night of
the big city lights is awesome!
How I got my nick name:
A lot of ppl say to me, “Hey, you have
a disease or something? What does your nick mean??” Hahaha…well I’ll
clear it up here. It was one of those late nights when you can’t sleep
and start watching the late night movies. This particular night, Conan
The Barbarian was on, the first movie, and his love’s name was Valaria.
Now that sounds like an illness, don’t you think? I later found out
that 'falaria' is a portugues noun for 'would speak' as told to me by
a Brazillian friend. Hmm..thought that was cool.I
first got introduced to the idea of chatting via the computer through
BBS’ng. That’s Bulletin Board Systems. The only person you could speak
with in real time was the SysOp or oporator of the board. Other ppl
you would communicate with through a msg service. Much like you would
a forum, nowadays...but one person could be logged on at any given time.
So..that’s when I first needed a nick, back in Dec. of 93. I changed
it to Falaria as I am Welch and Scottish, have a bit of a temper as
I'm a redhead, hence the Flare sound…which Lucutis is the main recipient
of…lol.
I'm feeling
