Thank God that we are both nerds
I'm a nerd. So much of one that when I am at my boyfriends rock shows and there are 300 people packed into the bar/club/whatever going insane. I'm sitting selling shirts and reading Harry Potter Draco/Ginny fanfiction on my phone. I kept the nerdy side of myself a secret for a while, but one day I accidently went on a 25 minute Star Trek tangent. The next day my boyfriend was telling me how shocked he was that I liked sci-fi which only got me rambling about Lucas being an **, Soylent green being people and the like. He had this look of wonder on his face and then he timidly asked me if I would please watch Battlestar Galactica with him. No one gets it. Not one of our friends likes the things we do and I am so glad that when he walks off stage for break and comes to sit next to me he can ask with a perfectly straight face "Is Draco a deatheater in that one or is it an AU?" Nerds. We come in all shapes and sizes. The girl in the bubblegum dress and heels can be just as big a nerd as the guy in the SG-1 shirt.
"Perhaps I do not strike you as a geek
Without the horn-rimmed glasses or knee-high argyle socks
But nerdery is more than wardrobe-deep
And I’m a nerd down in my heart, and that’s where nerdhood rocks
Oh, I’m better acquainted than a good girl ought to be
With Aragorn and Yo-Saff-Bridge and Worf and HAL and Han
But you don’t really know me and my culture don’t control me
So don’t you pigeonhole me, cuz my phaser’s set to stun" - Marian Call
:] I wish you many years together.
HAHAHA! It really does seem lame when written down, but hey we love it!
