I am a stay at home mom of 5 kids. I met my husband working for a game company. I was doing graphics at the time and he was doing DB work. We hit it off right away. He is my soul-mate. A couple years after moving in together we discoverred online gaming with UO. We started playing Asheron's Call when it was released, and we have enjoyed gaming together online in many different games since. I homeschool my eldest 2 children, who both enjoy gaming as well.

I am not the dex monkey, my kids are, but I do relatively well on console games. I got through Jade Empire within a couple days. It was the first time I had bought myself a console game with no intention of letting the kids play until I finished. However my cup of tea are MMORPG's, RPG's and Sims2. A lot of shooter games give me motion sickness, so I tend to avoid them. When not playing online I sculpt fantasy dolls, draw, and sew costumes or theme reproductions. I am a real artsy fartsy type and always have half a dozen projects going.
