One of my friends posted this to a mommy message board I’m on. I couldn’t help reposting to my FB wall since I loved it so much. You may or may not know it, but I am 100% geek!
Yes, I love me some Star Wars, Harry Potter, and Lord of the Rings. Some of my favorite TV shows came from the SyFy Channel. I read an inordinate number of fantasy novels growing up, and some of my favorite “fandoms” are Doctor Who, Star Trek: TNG, and Firefly. I also loved playing games — whether it be Mario Brothers or Zelda on my NES – or online, starting with Gemstone III when I was barely even a teenager. Any other Gemstone fans out there?? 🙂
As for Adrian, well, he could probably write an entire blog post of his own detailing his geekery! Thank goodness he found me! We are truly a perfect match, with the same interests!
We are raising our boys to have a healthy love of everything and anything nerdy, geeky, techy, and scifi. Zachary adores Star Wars, can tell the difference between a Goomba and a Koopa, and can do a pretty good imitation of a Dalek (EX-TER-MIN-ATE!). No doubt, William will follow in his big brother and his parents’ footsteps.
So, it’s not surprising when things like this happen at our house:
ZACHARY SKYWALKER TO THE RESCUE!
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!
Adorable!!!
