Yesterday I totally geeked out. I was at Barnes and Noble, and I was purchasing a Torchwood book and a new issue of Doctor Who magazine. I was wearing my Daleks exterminate shirt. I got the best smirk from the girl behind the counter.
And I've accepted that I'm a nerd. But the thing is about nerdiness, is you can't ever be just a nerd. You can delve into the ocean of different types of nerdiness, and it just never ends.
There's obsession nerds, who go crazy over something for a month and then move on. (Me)
There's the life-nerds, who are dedicated to one thing forever and ever. (Lindsey)
There's your everything nerds, who know everything about everything you ever wanted to know...and a few things you'd rather have not known. (Allison)
There's the tech nerds, who can make a hovercraft out of a light board and a bottle of mouthwash. (Daphne) --note to self: find a way to have Daphne do this.
The possibilities of nerdiness are endless. I've just recently begun accepting myself as a nerd. But the reality is, you can't be all that individual in a world of so many different nerds. There's a huge spectrum, and it goes on and on and on. Kind of like Jack Harkness' life. *nerdgasm*
