Letting my geek flag fly.
Okay, here's how big a geek I am. I'm playing Okami, and in the middle of a battle with a fox-faced demon I paused the screen to do a sketch for a mask. It's a neat variation of the traditional Kyogen kitsune masks (one of which I made for ![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
moko_moko because she gave me the idea). I just used my old pattern, but carved different designs.
Anyway I just finished carving them and boy are they cute! I am a huge freakity McGeekburger, and that's a fact.
*sigh*
Ok, back to work. I made myself a promise that I'd fit a solid night of work into my schedule, which is SO freakin' hard because I just reached Oni Island and OMG I have a ton of stuff to do there.
Question; Are gamer freaks considered "geeks" or "nerds"? 'Cause really I think I'm more of a nerd than a geek. Hmm. Semantics.
Also the weather here is crappy. CRAPPY! It's supposed to snow tomorrow. SNOW! Right now at about midnight-thirty it's almost 65 degrees out there and by the morning we'll be in the mid-thirties. There's lightning and rain all over the place tonight. What a mess! I'm not ready for the white stuff yet.

Nerds are really smart but unfortunately dorky people.
Since there is no association between gamers and smart (because the type of people who are gamers seems to run the full range of intelligence) I'd say that it ties in to the obsessiveness and therefore freakiness, and they are 'geeks', not nerds.
