Adorkable Blog


Hello hello hello!
This is a blog! My very own gee golly :D Kind of nerdy eh? That's peachy keen with me though, I consider myself a bit of a geek. A chic geek? Maybe a dork? Adorkable in fact. However, I looked up geek in Merriam-Webster's dictionary and stumbled upon this shocking definition!

Main Entry: Geek (p.s. If you'd like to be wildly entertained, check out my discovery at the end of this post)
Function:
noun
Date: 1914
DEFINITION #1: a carnival performer often billed as a wild man whose act usually includes biting the head off a live chicken or snake.

Yup. That's me! Um...yikes.



5 other geeky things about me:
1. Although I may appear to be a somewhat disorganized or messy-minded person (I prefer the term "organized chaos"), I absolutely love lists and can't wait to make bunches here.

2. I have this tree-hugger instinct deep inside of me that compels me to pick up litter as I'm walking along in life. Sometimes I feel proud for saving the planet by disposing of that little Cheetos bag moseying about. Other times I feel slightly embarrassed for trying to be suave as I glide to the garbage can and run into a brick wall instead (...not that it's happened in front of cute boys or anything...)

3. On that note, "I'm not much of an environmentalist, but if YOU were a tree, I'd be a tree hugger" ;) How's that for a cheesy pick-up line? Works every time. Or it probably would if I used it.
4. After 18 years of ridicule and embarrassment, I still get a red mustache every time I drink Kool-Aid.
5. I paid a dollar to kiss an alpaca. The only excuse I can come up with is that it was for charity!

Latest Greatest Discovery!: You have to try this. The online Merriam-Webster Dictionary includes a fantastic little speaker next to almost every word to provide the correct pronunciation. Listening to them repeatedly promises laughter especially after 11 pm. Try... bob or psychopharmacology or shindig :) http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/shindig
