I'm a Designer by trade. I have many "fiery" passions going all at once. I live in a really small state and am constantly trying to find ways to amuse myself. I'm currently working in what seems like a small-town corporation –– because it IS in a small town and people behave accordingly –– but which is actually a Fortune 30 company. What this means is, I work for The Man, even though it doesn't seem like it. This can be both good and bad, depending on how you look at it. I knit, I read, I take photos of the knitting and of my furry friend (and anything else I can think of) and I like to eat a ton of sushi. Currently, I live with Haruki my cat pal and am always fending off "cat-lady" comments from "friends-who-think-they-are-funny" when I profess my undying love for him. WHATever!
