I’m a Nerd. =)

Haha.

I have comic books, Dragonlance fantasy books, a sega genesis + games under my bed. I have a box full of PC games in the closet. I have a Nintendo edition Monopoly board still in the plastic. I have a notebook stuffed with comics I use to draw myself when I was younger. I have a SNES, N64, Gamecube, Nintendo Wii and a DVD player all hooked up to 1 of my 3 televisions… I have some of the latest and greatest techie toys installed on my badass custom built computer that eats other people’s crappy computers for breakfast. I’ve got my own .com (Virtuekid.net)… I wrote a FAQ for a game (Light Crusader FAQ)…

Guess what ladies…

I’m a nerd. =)

And proud of it.

Heh, I never really noticed JUST HOW NERDLY I am until I read what I just typed. That’s funny. I really am a nerd. w00t for me.

Why did I start thinking about this? I’ll tell you why. I got an email today. The type of email that I love to receive. Here’s the email…

Hey man i just wanted to say awesome job on the faq for light crusader. I just found sega in my house when my sis came home from college so i decided to hook it up. It apparently was my uncles cause i was a nintendo kid but as a kid you play every game system multiple times, and of course i love sega just as much as nintendo. So i hooked it up and was looking for a good one to play when i came across light crusader. I poped it in and little did i know i was in for some quality hours with this game. I love old school rpg’s like this so i was instanly hooked. Your faq came in handy shortly after i started it, it made it alot more enjoyable to see how the game should be played. I just beat it today and figured i owed you at least an e-mail of my appreciation. I will now be a light crusader fan for life and will hold it right next zelda in my eyes. Thanks again and great job i had a ton of fun.

That makes me so happy. You ladies be sure to comment on my FAQ. I worked hard on it (It’s been 2 years now? Wow.)

Oh and any comment about how nerds might be sexy.. that would be great too. =D
