What can I say? I am a confirmed geek. :) I do research for a living and even do it for my hobbies. My favorite 'hobby' is participating in the SCA (Society for Creative Anachronism) where I dabble in sewing, spinning, knitting, weaving, cooking, calligraphy, illumination and music. My SCA name is Esperanza Sanchez de Calatrava, a middle-class Spanish artisan of the late 15th century.
