How being a nerd ruined my love life.

Being a nerd has ruined my chances at ever having a long lasting relationship...

That probably doesn't make any sense, but let me explain. I am a nerd, I am a huge nerd, I love Legos, Star Wars, Hot Wheels and Video Games. I love Sci-Fi and Fantasy, I spend my free time playing video games and reading as many books as I can get my hands on. Because of this, I've realized it will never be possible to find a woman who will have all the necessary nerdy requirements on my mental check list. 

So for shits and giggles, let's take a look at my mental check list and see why I am forever doomed in love..

1. Must love, or at the very least appreciate Star Wars.

2. Needs to generally acknowledge that the original three films of Star Wars are the best.

3. Ideally would accept both  my love of Star Wars and my appreciation of Star Trek.
        (Yeah, I'm a nerd when my top three requirements are all about Star Wars)

4. must love dogs! (seriously.... I've had dogs all my life and pretty much always will) 

5. If not a huge video game nerd (like me) then at least needs to be willing to try to play games with me 

6. should have a fondness for most things lego. (including video games)

7. literacy is mandatory.

8. an appreciation of most films from Mel Brooks is also needed. 


9.  I love the idea of global domination, mostly through playing RISK and Monopoly... so I need someone willing to play board games with me.




10. musicals.... I love them, it'd help if my gal did too.


11.beyond all my silly nerd moments, I need someone who can make me laugh and make me smile. And frankly.... I don't smile all that much anymore. 


Mostly this was an excuse to enjoy my own nerdiness and add pictures in for a semi-entertaining blog post. And this would have been more entertaining if I weren't already struggling to keep my eyes open. Besides I have a dog snoring away at my feet and Star Wars: A New Hope playing on the DVD player. 


Night my lovelies!
