Well, hello there. I'm SugarBurn, but you can call me DiDi. I'm here thanks to CelticUprising (you can blame him later!). I'm puertorican and I'm 23 years old, and work for a company that does HR Management. I love cooking, fixing cars, crafts and, of course, gaming. I live with C.U., and thanks to him I love games even more than I did before. He's the first boyfriend I've ever had who's encouraged me to game. I'm a lucky girl, and he's AWESOME.
I had a very limited gaming background in my younger days, mostly due to my mother and her belief that fighting games weren't for girls. Up until I turned 10-11, all I knew were racing games. I mostly played Super Nintendo games, then got my brother's Sega Master System. Then my uncle got himself a 3DO (do people even remember that???) and I got to play with it whenever I wasn't in school or he wasn't using it. Even then, the best games I played on there were MYST and Soccer Boy. Then, something incredibly awesome happened. My mom bought me a game called Bio F.R.E.A.K.S. for my N64. Then she got me Baldur's Gate, so what can I say, she helped create my gaming style for years to come. All through college I played Starcraft and Diablo II with friends. I still love adventure games and fighting games. I even played WoW and Final Fantasy XII for a while. Even though I enjoyed those games, online gaming is just getting too expensive, so I just went back to playing my console games and having a good time.
I'm also a proud member of the SCA (Society for Creative Anachronism) where I take on a Norse persona (because "viking" is a verb, not a noun. Took me a while to learn that.) I spend time playing Magic: The Gathering and participating in D&D campaigns. I did spend some time playing an army of Sisters of War, but decided that being the only girl in that place was a little creepy. It probably had to do with the fact that I didn't generally trust the people I was gaming with, so I might try my hand at it again.
On a personal note, I love my family. I have a daughter named Mya, who sadly I don't see that often, but still love with all my heart, my stepson Xander who is one of the most amazing children I have ever met, and my dearest Tommy, who is the best thing in my life. I also own the only gay, bi-lingual dog in the world (it's a long story, but oh so entertaining) and his name is Loki (after the Norse god of mischief). We also have a cat, named Nero, who is insane but fits right in with the rest of us.
I guess this is all for now, unless people want to know more or I remember something cool I forgot, heh. Oh, and per CelticUprising's request: BACON!!!! Well, hello there.
