My lovely other half sent this to me this morning. So I decided to share.
You may be a Nerd If...
- If you rotate your screen savers more frequently than your automobile tires
- If you have a functioning home copier machine, but every toaster you own turns bread into charcoal
- If you have more toys than your kids
- If you need a checklist to turn on the TV
- If you have introduced your kids by the wrong name
- If you have a habit of destroying things in order to see how they work
- If your I.Q. number is bigger than your weight
- If the microphone or visual aids at a meeting don't work and you rush up to the front to fix it
- If you can remember 7 computer passwords but not your anniversary
- If you have memorized the program scheduled for the Discovery channel and have seen most of the shows already

It's true. Awesome has so many toys that we own 4 toy boxes. One of them belongs to me, but it's only filled up halfway...

This one is for DD-
Signs Technology Took Over Your Life
- Your stationery is more cluttered than Warren Beatty's address book. The letterhead lists a fax number, e-mail addresses for two on-line services, and your Internet address, which spreads across the breadth of the letterhead and continues to the back. In essence, you have conceded that the first page of any letter you write is letterhead.
- You have never sat through an entire movie without having at least one device on your body beep or buzz.
- You need to fill out a form that must be typewritten, but you can't because there isn't one typewriter in your house, only computers with laser printers.
- You think of the gadgets in your office as "friends," but you forget to send your father a birthday card.
- You disdain people who use low baud rates.
- When you go into a computer store, you eavesdrop on a salesperson talking with customers, and you butt in to correct him and spend the next twenty minutes answering the customers' questions, while the salesperson stands by silently, nodding his head.
- You use the phrase "digital compression" in a conversation without thinking how strange your mouth feels when you say it.
- You constantly find yourself in groups of people to whom you say the phrase "digital compression." Everyone understands what you mean, and you are not surprised or disappointed that you don't have to explain it.

- You enjoy science
- You can sleep in class and still know what was covered

...I could go into the ones that apply to me, but i think it is shorter to point out that the buzzing made me giggle.
