Ha No, I'm kidding, I'm kidding.
Hello, everyone! My name is Amanda. I’ll start by saying that I have a fairly healthy social life: drinking, dancing, making merry, etc. However, it leaves much to be desired in the way of conversation. What kind of world is it where you can’t reference the TARDIS, Final Fantasy, or the Darmok episode of ST:TNG w/out getting blank stares in return? A sad one, that’s what kind. I’m not saying my friends aren’t intelligent - most are quite bright - it’s just not the sci-fi geekery I long for, I suppose.
I’m not very tech savvy, I'm afraid. My geekdom lies mostly in my music & film knowledge. I’ve been a Trekkie & Star Wars fan since I was able to form complete sentences (sometime between the ages of two & twenty-three). I’m a pop culture junky & video game enthusiast (mostly console): pretty much everything from Super NES to PS3. I teach art, talk to strangers frequently, play a handful of instruments, bump into things, eat a lot of cheese, & may or may not be putting vodka’s kids through college.
Was hoping I could find a community of people I could relate to! This seems as good a place as any.
