Handling my Geek :)

Next year I will be married to the most wonderful Hubby man for three years. Now three years is not whole lot of experience, but I learned a little thing or too, especially in the Nerd/Geek department.

Some of you may or may not know, my husband  is a nerdy, superhero loving, sonic screwdriver yielding,  know the whole movie by heart in one sitting, light saber master, and the one who wanted to dress  like the Bioshock videogame Big-Daddy and his daughter as a Little Girl,  geek. (If you can say that in one breath, I give you props!)

Being the middle sister of two big geeks themselves, I thought when I married my husband; I was pretty well versed in my Geekiense. But to my surprise, my husband came from this whole knew different order of Geekdom. (Somewhere in the Sanctum by the tower Doom, in section titled “Unmarked”, because they don’t exist according to MIB.)

*sigh* I remember when he swooped me off my feet with the lines “You’re the Princess Laya to my Han Solo!” on the night he purposed, right before he lost the ring in his pocket.  I should have known then I would spend the rest of my life with Back to the Future post in living room and painting Tardises for my artwork.   

There was just something about how giddy he got when he got to teach me the Killer Bunnies game and how his heart broke when Green Lantern Live film didn’t do too well in Theaters. And the special names he gives to his kids…our daughter will forever be his young “padiwon learner” after she learned to crawl because she was wanted to get the power cord to his laptop.

In my few years, I learned how to handle my geek.

One big thing is never question ceremonious rituals or routines. It doesn’t matter is you end up walking into a theater with your companion looking like Dr. Who and he addresses you as his “companion.” Don’t question it!!! EVER!!!! Unless you want the three hour long in-depth reasoning, just smile and accept your fate.

Another thing, and this is really good to boost your memory skills, is to know the difference between names and titles of things even if they sounds exactly the same. There is a huge difference between Batman Arkhem Asylum and Batman Arkhem City. And even though Batman lives in Gothem City, don’t question the Batman game title.

One of the benefits of being married to a geek, if that I learned how to really speak Geekiense. Sure, I knew it before. But I learned more than just what certain words stood for, I learn how to phrase them and properly pronounce them. So when my geek has his fellow geeks over in the deep debate over how the Justice League and The Avengers compare, you can pipe in how Iron man is just the cocky day time version of Batman and impress a few of your guests. J

But I have to say my favorite is when my husband brings home Ben and Jerry's Ice cream with gummy bears so we can watch the latest episodes of Dexter, Sherlock, and Dr. Who. With daughter sleeping peacefully to soft song about a mad scienctist falling in love, there is just nothing like ending the day like that.

And loving our children while he games online

There is nothing like being married to my dorky Hubby man. :)
Love ya Honey.

Until another day.

Toodles!
