| Introduction | I am a 29-year-old legal professional who lives in Reno, Nevada. I love crafting, and consider crochet and knitting my art. I love music and the outdoors, and most of all my kitties! Alfie (3), Neska (2), and William (1). I love all animals, and could spend 24 hours a day with them. I speak Spanish, y por eso usted podria escribirme en espanol, si preferias. I speak a little bit of Basque, baino pixka-pixkat! Ez daukat behar euskera! I spent some time in the Basque Country going to school and and hanging out with my family in Gernika and Bilbao, and I fell in love with the land of my ancestors. My father's family is Southern, with Irish, Scottish, and Scots-Irish roots. I want to visit County Armagh in Ireland, where they came from. I also want to see Hadrian's Wall. I am descended from William Wallace on my father's side. I am very proud of my family and its history, and I spend a lot of my free time researching our family tree. I also spend an inordinant amount of time on the website ravelry.com!! I am, alas, addicted! |

The hair from your last haircut ... what would it say about your new style?
As a kid I had light hair that would bleach to a white-blonde in the summer. As I grew older it darkened considerably. I went very light processed blonde for years. Now I am dark auburn with lighter red streaks. My formerly straight hair has gone naturally curly. I have a shoulder-length style with a thick bang, like Jennifer Garner & Liv Tyler. Voila!
