A Nervous Premonition

[doug*platypus]

I for one don't believe that doing something geeky makes you a geek. But if it does, then you my young friend are a geek. And so am I. Best thing to do is to accept it, and move on from there. So long as what you do is within your own limits, and you don't cross whatever line you set for yourself, you'll be fine. For example, I myself wouldn't wear a sword or a cloak. And I don't try to convert people to The Lord of the Rings. I only really talk about Tolkien to people that I know will appreciate it, and even then of course there's different levels. But that's just my line, you may have your own, or you may choose not to have one at all! The most important thing is to not let other people affect the way you live your life too much. Who wants to be completely normal? Not me. I think that if everyone spent countless hours of their lives reading and talking about Tolkien, I might not want to do it anymore and would probably just go surfing.
