The Nerd? Geek? or Dork? Test

Your result for The Nerd? Geek? or Dork? Test...

Modern, Cool Nerd

70 % Nerd, 57% Geek, 43% Dork

For The Record:



A Nerd is someone who is passionate about learning/being smart/academia.

A Geek is someone who is passionate about some particular area or subject, often an obscure or difficult one.

A Dork is someone who has difficulty with common social expectations/interactions.



You scored better than half in Nerd and Geek, earning you the title of: Modern, Cool Nerd.



Nerds didn't use to be cool, but in the 90's that all changed. It used to be that, if you were a computer expert, you had to wear plaid or a pocket protector or suspenders or something that announced to the world that you couldn't quite fit in. Not anymore. Now, the intelligent and geeky have eked out for themselves a modicum of respect at the very least, and "geek is chic." The Modern, Cool Nerd is intelligent, knowledgable and always the person to call in a crisis (needing computer advice/an arcane bit of trivia knowledge). They are the one you want as your lifeline in Who Wants to Be a Millionaire (or the one up there, winning the million bucks)!



Congratulations!

Thanks Again! -

Important breaking news flash...
I am not a Christian. I do not celebrate Christmas. Please stop asking me what I am doing for Christmas. I am doing nothing for Christmas. If you are wondering what I am doing a week from today, feel free to ask. It's a Tuesday. I'm not working. Maybe I'll sleep in, read a book, walk the dogs... Perhaps I'll even get myself some Chinese food.

I think that come spring I'll start asking everyone what they're doing for Pesach. Then I'll fuss over them and invite them to my house to celebrate. Wait, what do you mean you're going to stay home...you can't be alone on Passover!

Mystery Stole 3

That's right, I've embarked on my very first knit-a-long. It's Mystery Stole 3, also my first big lace project, not to mention another first, beads! Here are the details:

Yarn: Jaggerspun Zephyr in White (an exceptional bargain here in BK at Sarah's Yarns)
Needles: Size 4 bamboo circulars
Beads: Matsuno color #343 (I'd call it vanilla cream), size 8/0

Above is the center detail from Clue 2. It was tough g0ing at first, but I've got a lifeline in at row 100, and since then the frogging has been kept at a max of 5 rows or so.

For those of you who have not kept up, all activity this summer was slowed up by the weeklong vacation I took at the beginning of July at the fabulous Maimondides Medical Center Resort right here in sunny, humid, sweltering Brooklyn!

I'm starting to get back into the swing of things so keep tuned in.

Revision

Ok...maybe S.D. can come off the referendum. But Douglas County is still up for banning.

New Ballot Initiatives

In light of the ballot measures being voted on tonight (Ballot Measures via CNN) I propose we initiate a national ballot measure for 2008:

Ban South Carolina, South Dakota, Colorado & Tennessee

__yes __no

Seems only fair, doesn't it?

Snoozeweaver

Ah, the wonder of $39.00/hour. I sit here during hour 2 of my oh so boring Dreamweaver class. So far we've learned how to put in an image and change the background colors. Oh, and to create hot spots. BTW, we're on day 3 of the course. Obviously this is a waste of time for me. URGH!

Tiny takeoff on Christo proves gateway to glory

Finally the baby aran is finished. Here it is in all it's glory. And of course upon it's first wearing, Princess Nell promptly threw up all over it!

Day One

After several months of voracious blog reading, along with the requisite linking to the witty, topical and sometimes inane, I felt it was time to stop the mass mailings and start sharing the internal chatter out loud. My very own soapbox!

Plus I get a spot to post my lastest projects for all to see. Off to purchase a digital camera, so expect photos later today.

As with most projects who knows how long this one will last, but check back often.
