Almost a Geek
On Tuesday night, I'll take an exam to get my amateur radio technician license.
I'll be an official geek.
I've been a dork before, and even a nerd (word nerd, not number nerd or science nerd - big difference there!)
I had been thinking of switching to contacts for the first time in my life, but I think that's not allowed if you're a geek. I may have to get some white tape for the middle of my glasses. Maybe I can dig up a pocket protector from my husband's college days.
Yes, honey, I know. They were very practical.
I'm studying today, so I can pass that test. I've passed every practice test I've taken, but that's not good enough. I told DH I'd keep studying and testing until I got a 100%. In fact, I told him I wouldn't go to bed until I did. Once, I got only one wrong. Last test = 5 wrong. I just drank a Mountain Dew.
I'm going to take a snow shoveling break here soon. I need to counteract the fudge I've been snitching all day. I should've told DH not to use the snow blower. Had I shoveled all six or seven inches of the white stuff, I probably could've eaten half the pan. (Wait, I think I did!)

I have never used a pocket protector! I have never owned a pocket protector! I have not even wanted a pocket protector!

I have a very clear memory of this. You did. It was just when you were working at Hardee's. Maybe it came with the uniform?
