I'm in my late 20s and I live in Galveston Texas, USA. I will eventually get my BA in History. I'm the eldest of three (two brothers). Before he died in 2008 I'd managed to introduce my youngest brother to WoT. I've been with my boyfriend for several years, and he thinks most of what I do WoT-wise is silly, but he doesn't mind too much. I like to craft and travel and read. In late 2009 I started playing Roller Derby, and it's become my latest greatest obsession. I like food a lot :D Spaghetti or a nice medium rare steak will always make the perfect dinner :P
