You probably won't get many responses to this because people like to talk about themselves, rather than hear about new people. Welcome to Gather, a self portrait of America.
I like your avatar by the way. I think I'm gonna put a face on me soon. I like to look at faces, so I should do that. Maybe tomorrow.

Well- duh - isn't procrastination what gamers do? (saying this in a very stuffy stuck up persons voice.) I used to play alot of console and computer games, I have not really done much handheld playing. My worst "addiction" was Everquest, I logged so many hours it was almost sad.
Anymore, with 3 children under 5 years old and 1 that is 9, I do not find the time to play games.
I like the shots of you and Austin's sims. Does his look as much like him as yours does like you?
