    Me! I need more geeky friends on here. :D

    My first and foremost geekdom will always be books. I am a total bookworm and I work at a library where I coordinate a lot of the teen programming. But I also write, play video games (I'm rpg fanatic), watch and rewatch an unhealthy amount of fabulous tv shows (Doctor Who, Buffy, Firefly, Battlestar Galatica, etc.), and I even dabble in tabletop gaming.

    Please feel free to add me! :D

    I have a max level character of every class in World of Warcraft and Star Wars MMO's. As well as a Master's in Computer Science. Does that make me nerdy? I suck at magic (the card game) if that helps! And i'm currently on a mission to collect them all in Pokemon Y.

    But besides that i'm always looking for friends to help keep me honest and motivated!

    I'm an Electronic Engineer and love writing software and enjoy being a geek. Especially when it comes to making cool stuff.
    I also kinda like to track everything to remove the variables from the equation so that I can get the results that I want. Learning about good health, a healthy lifestyle, and running (although, I've been running for a few years now) are my personal goals.

    I'm always happy to provide support and guidance if I can. Feel free to add me if you like.

    I absolutely love anime, manga and Japanese culture in general, to the point that I'm semi-fluent in Japanese (self-taught!)
    Not sure if these count, but I'm also a big fan of heavy metal, and am a horror movie junkie.
    Methinks that there are lots of geeky/nerdy people on MFP - just another reason to love this site.

    I'm a computer engineer and fitness freak. I QUALIFY! (Hi All! Okay, today is the day! I've got two weeks off work from tomorrow. I'm getting my Olympic weights set and power rack with Lat/Low Pulley to add to all the equipment already in my home gym. Training isn't my problem. Nutrition is. That's where I need encouragement and suport. My goal is to be 200Lbs at 9% body fat. Yes, I'm a control freak! :-) Target date is 13th Nov. this year, my 49th birthday. The plan is to reduce my body fat first, get it down to 9% then build muscle to bring my weight back up. I've go 7 months. I'm going for 100% but if I achieve anything over 80%, which I'm very confident of, I'll be happy! I'll have learned a lot and it'll be a good platform for making my long-range goal (for my 50th) a reality. Wish me luck!!!)

    Me! I'm using Zombies, Run! 5K for my cardio :-)

    I also LOVE all things Potter and am a card carrying Whovian.

    I don't think this makes me nerdy, per say, but I'm also an avid knitter, and have made many a Gryffindor and TARDIS themed item :-)

Biomedical research... feel free to add me, anyone :-) I love gadgets, apocalypse anything, medical & science anything, and of course, MFP... losing weight and getting/staying in shape is apparently my hobby, along with online dating (ugh), and writing resumes for friends?! Need more friends, LOL :laugh: :drinker:
