It is with pleasure that my gals and I accept the names geek or nerd - definitely compliments here, although I don't think anyone outside our family has ever described us this way (I didn't include my husband as I am not so sure he appreciates those labels like we do).
Here is a conversation from my house today:
Oldest dd: Mom, I opened the cupboard and some test tubes fell out and shattered on the floor.
Me: Oh, no. (groan)
dd: I'm sorry mom. All I did was open it and it happened.
Me: Oh, I know honey, I just hate cleaning up glass from the floor because I always worry if I have left some behind.
pause...
dd: You know you are a nerdy family when you open cupboard doors and test tubes fall out.
I am not even sure that we have ever *used* those test tubes, but at least we have some to break. (sigh)
