    Today I'm a nerd because I get giddy at seeing the large variety aircraft fly around at work and realize I work at a very unique place.

    @PaulaKro - http://www.amazon.com/Doctor-Who-Other-Tardis-License/dp/B005FI5BBA That one is pretty expensive ($50, it's a piece of plastic), but if you google "my other car is a Tardis frame" there are some less expensive option.

    Today I'm a nerd because I spent hours painting Dnd minis that we'll probably never even use in our games just because I collect them, and now I'm going to play Mario with my kids.

Oh on that note today i'm a nerd because i spent 220.00 backing the shadowrun hong kong kickstarter (this was a month ago) and i'm getting 330.00 in book shelves for game storage.

    I KNOW!!!!!! I might just be spending $60 on a shirt that will never fit, because if it fits in the shoulders then it will be a tourniquet at the waist, and if it fits at the waist then it will be falling off my shoulders... I wonder if I could get it altered! LOL

    (Oh, and yes: STAR WARS OMG STAR WARS)

    I own a total of 10 work out shirts and 9 are from Under Armour's Alter Ego line. 3 of them are a little snug on me but I am working on it. And yes, the new Star Wars teaser trailer.

    Today I'm a nerd because... this morning, at one point while playing a word game, it occurred to me that I apparently can no longer -- nor will I ever be able to (or so it would seem) -- see the word "LORE" without thinking, "Data's brother"... there seem to no longer be 'any' synaptic connections that will 'allow for' 'immediate' recollection of the only other definition I knew the word to have, prior to ST:TNG 'having its way with' the language center of my brain (over 20 years ago! -- it took over 20 years of 'data' (no pun intended ;) ) regarding "lore" (no pun intended ;) ) for me to finally 'admit defeat' (?!))...

    (Then again, maybe I was patiently waiting out whatever synaptic 'gang war' might be necessary, in order for 'The Originals' ;) to 'live on'... ;) )

    Today I'm a nerd awesome because after searching on the internet for a couple of months I finally found a good version of Doctor Who 12th's Doctor theme music track which I listened to while going out jogging earlier today.

    Today I signed up for nerdblock's arcade box. Even if the game stuff isn't that good the free tshirts that come with it will be welcome.

    I love listening to the 11th theme while running. Really seems to give me that extra burst of speed!
