Geek! Nerd!

[allyndra]

 Wow, I'm a geek! I knew this, of course. I even had a "Some of us have geekiness thrust upon us" speech I used to use as an introduction speech for my Principles of Human Communication classes.  So why am I feeling overwhelmingly geeky today? Dropping $60 at the comic book store might have something to do with it. Saying things like, "No, we can't do that on Friday or we'll miss Doctor Who" could be part of it. 

But the real reason? My son was reading Superfudge, and he didn't know what "Toot, Toot, Tootsie" sounded like (the grandmother sings it to the baby, who is called Tootsie). I was able to play the song for him because I had it on CD. Because I'm a fan of the song? No. Because I have such a diverse selection of popular music from all eras? No. Because it was on Brent Spiner's CD, "Old Yellow Eyes is Back," purchased entirely because I love him as Data. 

That's why I'm a geek.

Okay, I remember Jasmine Guy singing on A Different World, and she had a really good voice. And Tia Carrere gets points just for being hot on Wayne's World and kicking ass in True Lies. But Carmen Electra? *shakes head in bafflement*

*wibble*

But...but...it was the nineties! And she was Prince's protogee! And...and...BOOBIES! *wails and tears hair*

Yeah, I have no shame. Sometimes, that's fun. But then I let it slip that I have Carmen Electra's album and I realize that I'm all alone in the world. *bites lip*

*goes off to read your Connor/Xander to feel better*

I don't have any Carmen Elctra albums, but ... *scuffs shoe in the dirt sheepishly* ... I may possibly at one time have done her Strip Tease Workout. A little. Does that help to alleviate your shame?

Okay, then I totally don't feel embarrassed that I used Cindy Crawford's workout tape with much success!

And using CE's Strip Workout is so non-shameful! Not compared with naked yoga...but I'm not going there. :x
