Tonight was my oldest daughters first real concert. She has gone into Austin to see Boys Like Girls, The Audition, We the Kings and All Time Low at La Zona Rosa. My youngest daughter decided early on today that because her and I would be alone, we should go and see Sydney White. It was your feel good teen movie with Amanda Bynes. The girl got the guy at the end and everyone lived happily ever after. For a teen movie it was not that bad and parts of it were actually funny. During the movie she becomes friends with 7 guys who live in this house called The Vortex. They are all outsiders who re-enact video games for fun and who have a pet rat called Bilbo. One part that made me laugh was the end where everyone stood up, said something about themselves and proclaimed, "I'am a dork." So here is my salute.
I am a dork
1) I watch CNN even when there are others things on television
2) I love Dirty Jobs and have a secret crush on Mike Rowe
3) I cry at some Hallmark commercials
4) I watch scary parts in movies and television with my hands over my eyes
5) I still go trick or treating, with my girls, of course
6) I sing out loud and have been known to use the phrase, "how sad would it be if only the birds with the most beautiful voices in the forest, sang."
7) I say things like, wicked good, goodness gracious or good lord
8) I firmly believe one of my friends is a super hero who changes in his closet and fights the forces of evil in his spare time
9) I use an excel spreadsheet to keep track of my bills
10) I know the intimate workings of an automated voice response system and if you need to redesign your website I am the girl to ask.
11) I love the family that I was born into and enjoy spending time with them. Most of the time.
12) I have books downloaded to my iPod for long plane trips
13) I read Paradise Lost for fun and almost bought myself a beautiful hard cover addition at Barnes and Nobles last weekend.
14) I cannot eat anything without spilling some part of it on my shirt
15) If you can break it, ruin it, trip over it, fall in it or dent it, I will be the one to do it.
You all have some dorky qualities too.

I can do this too, tonight!
Thank GOD someone else has a crush on Mike Rowe.
Although..I think this makes me gay.
That guy is a funny shit.
My single dork quality these days is that I've been playing this stupid Role Playing XBOX game for FOUR MONTHS now...I've poured hundreds of hours into this thing (usually during the wife's night out (right after rubbing one off of Cinemax On Demand))...and then...here's the kicker...actually BOUGHT additional content so I could play LONGER.
I'm going out right now to buy a shirt that says:
Loser
Malach - Show me your dorky side!
Mooooo35 - Wow your wife gets a night out. So not fair. Nothing wrong with XBOX until you start dressing like a character. Then your a loser.
I've loved Mike Rowe for a long time. He used to host a history channel game show and I fell in love with him on that.
I play an online, first-person shooter game not because I enjoy the game, but because I enjoy anonymously shooting my ex every chance I get. Don't hate me because I'm dorky.
We're all dorks...we have blogs.
This is true. Just depends if your dorky side extends past your blog!
