Have you ever been to a Nerd Party?
Think Halloween costume party, but with a nerdy twist.
Years ago I was invited to a Nerd Party in Missouri. I think enough time has passed to share a few pictures from it. The participants will remain anonymous, unless someone comments 😉
This was long before The Big Bang Theory. I am sure that if a Nerd Party was held today that someone would come dressed as Sheldon and Amy. Last year I went to a Costume Party where there was a couple dressed as Sheldon and Amy.
Here is what got my mind wandering toward the Nerd Party. While working on The Case of the Missing Book, I ran across this pocket protector that I wore as part of my costume for the Nerd Party.
I should have taken a picture instead of just putting it on the glass of the scanner. The quality of the pictures are not the best, but they were taken long ago and in a dimly lit gymnasium.
We had a bunch of kids at the party and they had some really cool costumes. What a bunch of nerds.
I decided to extract out the four brothers who were wearing Star Trek costumes. I have already sent the picture to the oldest 🙂
Here we have a picture of a nerd instructing his son on how to be a better nerd. It is also a good segue to the next picture.
Here we have a picture with most of the men who were at the party. I look really short in this picture, and I am only a little more than an inch shy of six feet tall. I just had a lot of tall friends.
To the right of me in the picture (my left) is the father of the four brothers who were wearing Star Trek uniforms. They had a family theme going.
I also have a picture of the women in their costumes, but know better than to post it. I might get hunted down.
Keep an eye out for my post tomorrow. I will be writing another post about Reformation Day.

Oh, yeah, definitely looks like fun!
Hey, some of my best friends (and all of my family) are nerds! And didn’t I see a few geeks sneaking in there, too?

Thanks for the memories!!
