geek prom
diaryland entry 9:42 a.m. - 2005-03-28
So. It's Monday again. It seems like there are more of them than just the standard one per week.
I'm tempted to start counting the hours until my vacation time starts. After today, I'll only have 6.5 days of work left. I've got half a day of vacation next tuesday, and then the real vacation begins on Thursday.
I have my engagement party on the 9th. But I have other plans for that day too. After the party (which is a very adult early dinner affair) my fiance and I shall try to sneak off to an event called the Geek Prom. It is a prom for geeks who never got invited to a real prom. I think we qualify. I never dated in high school, I met my fiance on the internet, and I have been to a Star Trek convention. My fiance did date in high school, but I think that is cancelled out on the geek scale by all the role-playing games and Babylon 5 conventions.
Now I don't just have to worry about what to wear for my wedding (which is alarmingly in only 2 weeks now). I also have to figure out what to wear for the prom. Maybe I'll need to re-watch Napoleon Dynamite for inspiration.
