What's a 7-letter word for "geek girl"?

Hi, I'm Sue. I'd rather be a spectator at the American Crossword Puzzle Tournament than the Winter Olympics, and I am a [41 across].

So, I was doing the crossword puzzle yesterday during my commute because I forgot my iPod at home. A decent way to pass the time...

28 across - "Basic unit for the elements" - 4 letters - ATOM.
29 down - "Acapulco appetizer" - 4 letters - TAPA.
30 down - "Prophetic sign" - 4 letters - OMEN
31 down - "V-8, but not the drink" - 5 letters - MOTOR
41 across - "Deviation from the norm" - 7 letters - ANO____

That's right! ANOMALY. Right in the middle of the crossword. That's all I wanted to share.
