    Hmm...what are my geek/nerd credentials?

    Was a math/science geek in school, now I'm a pharmacist.
    Have always loved sci-fi/fantasy books and shows
    I read scientific literature for fun sometimes :P
    Never really got in to gaming myself, but enjoy watching other people.
    I love good food, and I like to knit!

    <raises hand, bounces up and down in chair>

    Ooooh, oooh, me, me!

    42, over 120 pounds lost so far (about 70 courtesy of this site), just over twenty left to go. Definite geek. And nerd.


    Bookworm, gamer, browncoat, engineering job...


    ...let's see, what else? Two comic cons in the last five months, in two different cities (meh, I moved back to my hometown. The second weekend I was back was Denver Comic Con. I went. Even though I'd just been to the one in Sacramento in March). Great love of books (I think I mentioned that, but it can't be mentioned enough), languages, math, art. Not so much TV, but some. And foreign artsy films. During the summer while I was off I worked with a big art project downtown that hacked into the big advertising screens downtown to play custom-written Kinect games with passersby on Thursday and Saturday nights (which was an awesome experience). Missed Ren Fest this summer, but it's been a wild summer, to put it mildly.

    I'm always up for some new nerdy and geeky friends. I tend to get busy, but I do log in every day (I missed one, ONE, just before I made it to 365 in a row, pout, but in my defense I was also moving 1200+ miles on a total whim and in a rental car and it was a crazy two days) and I try to always comment on statuses when I have something to contribute. Sometimes even when I don't, lolol.

    Feel free to send me a FR (and that goes for all the other geeks and nerds and brainiacs out there), we lady geeks need to stick together :D

    And good luck on your journey! It takes a lot of time, but it's totally worth it.


    Edit to add: no knitting, but I do crochet (though not that well), and sewing (handy when the sizes start changing overnight!), and jewelry-making. Felt left out when I saw others brought those up, hahahaha.

    If cosplay progress photos aren't enough to prove my geek cred, I don't know what is.

    Open to friend requests, but please send a message along with any request.

    Feel free to add me as I'm a geek and proud of it. Not only do I love fantasy movies (Labyrinth happens to be my fave), but I'm also a Trekkie (TNG is my fave series, but I like TOS, too).

    I'm not sure I'm a geek chick but I'm trying to lose about 60 lbs so I'm right there with you. I too have lost weight twice before and really need to eat healthy. I was sorta eating healthy but I was eating too much of everything and stopped walking every day like before.
    Lost 5 pounds already and just started last week.

    You can do this!!

    Hi, I am electronically challenged-so I can't claim to be a geek chick. However, I have 70 lbs. of recycled fat that I am working on eliminating. I have recently made some major life changes and hope to be getting a handle on cooling my love affair with the wrong foods. I would like to have a weight loss buddy to chat with!

    Lifelong PC gamer, RPG fan. I go through phases with games, but I enjoy Fable, Sims and EQ2. I love some sci-fi and some MLP too (I used to be pretty into a few anime series). I consider myself pretty geeky and kinda nerdy at times too.

    I've been called, weird, quirky, nerdy, geeky, etc. So I guess I qualify? Add me if you'd like.

    I am not sure I qualify. Hubby says I am a dork not a geek.I am the granddaughter of a sci fiction writer so sci fi is in my blood literally. Yes I prefer David Tennant to Matt Smith and am deeply concerned about Peter Capaldi. Yes I can name every movie most actors have been in like I am IMDb. But I am not a gamer and this is my first and only forum and online social group. even though my son lives on Fanfiction. I am read everything. Everything. Can't stand not knowing about things So if someone mentions something. I research and for months and sometimes years on things. I prefer Psych and Eureka to Star Trek.
    I do have 17.5 more pounds to lose? Does that get me anywhere?
    I am going to get booted from Geek Club for being too dorky . Story of my life.
