the "Nerd, Geek, or Dork" meme...

Your result for The Nerd? Geek? or Dork? Test...

Modern, Cool Nerd

For The Record:
A Nerd is someone who is passionate about learning/being smart/academia.
A Geek is someone who is passionate about some particular area or subject, often an obscure or difficult one.
A Dork is someone who has difficulty with common social expectations/interactions.

You scored better than half in Nerd and Geek, earning you the title of:
Modern, Cool Nerd.

Nerds didn't used to be cool, but in the 90's that all changed. It used to be that, if you were a computer expert, you had to wear plaid or a pocket protector or suspenders or something that announced to the world that you couldn't quite fit in. Not anymore. Now, the intelligent and geeky have eked out for themselves a modicum of respect at the very least, and "geek is chic." The Modern, Cool Nerd is intelligent, knowledgeable and always the person to call in a crisis (needing computer advice/an arcane bit of trivia knowledge). They are the one you want as your lifeline in Who Wants to Be a Millionaire (or the one up there, winning the million bucks)!

Congratulations!

jw1776 harvested potatoes Sunday - mostly purples, which is odd. He planted mostly whites.

I picked up a few plants for "difficult" spots in the front yard at on Sunday: a lavender for the NW corner of the yard, and a part-shade called "false heather" to go between the hostas on the mostly-shady side of the mound. I also planted the rest of my nasturtium seeds as a "cover crop" in the front potato bed today. It seems odd to be planting in August, but it feels like a good time: temperatures are mild (highs around 70F) and there's precipitation most days....

I'm looking forward to getting back to riding the bus (and walking between buses ;) regularly.
