We are all geeky in our own way. So in this thread I am asking my fellow riff raffers to:
Confess your geekness

I have a subscription to Wired magazine.
I get a new book from the library every 2 weeks.
I know about things like XML, ASPX, JSP, ADO, .NET, Java, HTTP, C#, ksh, and Perl.
Even though I'm 30, I still think that NFL and NBA replica jerseys are cool.
I miss not being enrolled in school.

I read a lot. And to top that, if I happen to run across a word I don't know, I look it up and write down the definition.

I don't know what I did before I owned my Palm Pilot.
I have several e-mail addys, and check all of them regularly.
When anyone at school needs computer help, they come to me, even people I don't know.
I constantly have my nose in a book.
I redo all my lesson plans each year on powerpoint.
I'm a professional student. After graduating next semester, I'm going to take the summer off and start again.
Most telling of all, everyone tells me I'm a geek.
