Still Nerdy, Stay Nerdy

As a nerd grows older does, he/she will they still have the enthusiasm about the stuff they are interested in? This is a question I am wondering about. Right now, I am in my 50’s and I am still nerdy about a lot of stuff, and I suppose I have my church (there are loads of nerds there), friends, and the Internet to thank for that. I just hope I don’t lose that sense of curiosity and joy that comes along with being a different sort of dude who sees things from a vastly different lens.

Stay nerdy my friends. Stay nerdy. Be yourself. The world needs us

Friday And The Weekend

I am taking a 3-day weekend because I deserve it. Having Friday off is quite nice. Working for the weekend seems like such a cliche but it’s nice to be able to have some quiet and some fun. Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate having a job, but you need a break from it every now and again. My friends no matter when your weekend is, make it a good one.
