Dorkness Rising

I'm a gamer. There I said it. I don't know why I feel there's a bit of stigma to it, but I get excited when I talk games. I feel a bit of elation when I get my issue of Game Informer in the mail and sadness when that issue has the "your subscription is about to run out" cover. I get totally emotional when E3 comes around.

This year is the year for gaming. At least on consoles anyway. Rock Band 2 in September, Fable 2 in October. Gears of War 2, Lego Batman, Fallout 3, MegaMan 9, Last Remnant, Final Fantasy IV and DragonQuest IV all come out this year. And I'm sure I missed a few more. But all that gets me a giddy.

Yes, I'm a dork.

And you know what else?

I play Dungeons and Dragons and other various pen and paper rpg games.

Yup. Sure do. There. My dirty little secret is out. And I'm proud to say it. I finally feel like I can embrace my inner dork.

Feels good.

So there, I posted. I really didn't mean to go for so long with out an update, but it seems that lately anything neat or cool happening to me has also happened to Kim and there for she beats me to the post button. I don't mind really. I haven't had a lot to say really.

I might have something to say soon. I'm 99.9% sure I will. So I guess I'll leave you with that little tease.

I'm a gamer too. Given everything you just said, D&D, gaming, etc... and the title of your post today, you should get The Gamers: Dorkness Rising on DVD. I think you'll love it. It gets released in August.

Shameless plug, sorry.

Whew...I thought you were gonna tell us that you liked to walk around in Kim's underwear while she was gone. =D

Thanks for exposing us to your weaknesses. But, most importantly, thanks for posting! We miss T-Money's wit, wisdom, and common sense.

Go Gamers! You know I'm a gamer too, but just PC. I don't own a console and don't want one. Unfortunatley I am a fan of first person shooters, single player mode. I don't play mulitplayer or team based games. Maybe I don't know what I'm missing, but it just hasn't interested me.

A dork? In this day and age (and circle-o-friends) it is we (and by we, I pretty much mean me) who are NOT gamers that are the dorks.

You should come do Mamma Mia Saturday with the Mikey Boy and I. Then you can feel like a music theatre dork! I mean, if you're gonna be exposed, go full frontal-right?

Hugs for missing you!
