I am a geek with a wide range of geek cred: internet, pc gaming, RPGS, Adventure games, RTS (I suck at FPS), LARPS, techie and science theory speak, sci-fi, anime, fantasy...
I am well-versed and enjoy discussion on a lot of subjects. Some of my favorites: philosophy, judaism, world religion, psychology, people, friendships, partying, social dynamics and theory, music (all aspects and styles), politics, feminism, queer culture, gender identity, scientific theory (relativity, astrophysics, cosmology, biology, chemistry, biochemistry, oceanography, geology, environmental science, zoology, and probably more), pop culture, globalization, and of course, simple storytelling. Ask my friends, I have some crazy stories...
A few things I like to go out and do: glowstick dancing, ballroom dance (...Who am I kidding, any kind of dance...), Barhopping, going to shows, clubbing, parties (throwing and attending, especially themed ones), wrestling girls for prizes, drag shows, Yiddishekeit, karaoke, live theatre, carnivals, Ren faires, coffeehouses, movies, recreational flirting, going to Beth's, card games, board games, walking around Greenlake, thrift store digging, adventures, the outdoors (camping, hiking, picnics, cookouts, sports with friends, nature, the beach... I miss surfing and the beach from Florida pretty bad sometimes.)

I won't bore you with the list. I am extremely ecclectic, have years of classical training, performed in a wide variety of Jazz, chamber, blues, dance, folk, and world music ensembles, and have fronted several rock bands; and I am naturally curious and adventurous. I really listen to almost anything. I am EXTREMELY picky about rap and country, and will probably turn up my nose to most.
The Princess Bride, All Trek movies, Shrek, Antz, the Matrix (the Original), Fight Club, The Ring (the original), Neverending Story, Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, Titanic (the ONLY chick movie), Spider-Man!, Pirates of the Carribean, Manos: the Hands of Fate (best bad movie evar), LOTR, Shortbus (my current obsession by John Cameron Mitchell)... there are probably more I'm missing.
dont ever watch tv anymore... old favs: Star Trek (any), Rainbow Brite, Classic SNL, The Wonder Years, Pete&Pete, Recess, Sliders (pre-cable), Boy Meets World, The Daily Show
Billy Idol, Joan Jett, P!nk, the Donnas, Alanis Morrisette, Jeremy Soule, Dan Coleman, Jerry Goldsmith, Lutoslawski, Regina Carter, Stephan Grapelli, Bobby Yang, Louis Armstrong, Matt Freeman, Stephen Hawking, Einstein, Lord Byron, Emma Goldstein, Shakespeare, Queen Elizabeth I, Lupine the Great, Salma Hayek, Drew Barrymore, Cary Elwes, Katherine Hepburn, Frida Kahlo. And, most of all, my friends. And sometimes, my family. :)
