Being Geek Chic is a blog for stylish geeks, sophisticated nerds and people who enjoy the musings of a complete dork. Join us as we dream of driving the TARDIS, cuddle with our eBooks and test out an iPad sleeve. It's written by Elizabeth Giorgi and a team of brilliant lady nerds. Meet the team.
1. Milo
This sweet little man belongs to two of my closest friends. And he has a very special place in my heart. We chilled this week. And he impressed me greatly with his recognition of colors. The development of a brain is a remarkable thing - Milo reminded me of that.
2. Manicures
Two of my best friends are starting new jobs next week, so we went to the nail salon and got manicures to celebrate on Wednesday night. In life, I must remember to cherish these moments more often, because there will undoubtedly be a day when partners and jobs and kids will make these kinds of moments harder to coordinate.
3. I have friends who get it.
When I wrote this post earlier this week, I sincerely worried people would think I was a whiny whiner. They didn’t. Instead, they rallied. They shared their stories. Sent me their contacts. Helped me connect with organizations who still pay a livable wage and reminded me that I have the power to say no. They didn’t have to do all that - but they get it. I hope it’s the start of something for all of us. Most importantly, I learned a lesson. I can’t allow myself to forget the power of community.
4. Cyber Sales
I know I shouldn’t be jazzed about online shopping, but hear me out. I got a very nice new light kit for 50% off, which I will be able to use on a couple upcoming video shoots and my new glasses cost me less than $40. I call that a win-win.
I also write elsewhere. This week:
