Geekdom 0
Shortly after we named our baby girl it was brought to my attention that we had given our little Gabriella an interesting set of initials. At my work our userids are comprised of our first initial, middle initial, and the first few letters of our last name, and if Gabriella were to be employed here her userid would be (of all things) GEEK. One of the ladies at work mentioned it to me and she gave a little mocking laugh and asked if we had realized what we had done to our daughter. At the time I couldn’t really figure out how to respond to her mocking joke because I was thinking that it was pretty cool that Gabriella’s initials spelled out the word geek.
I suppose it is because I consider myself a geek… and in my world being a geek is not a bad thing. I ran across this article that I thought was enjoyable and thought I would share with those of you who think geeks are cool too.
