Geek 2 Chic Affair at Bloomingdale’s

A self-proclaimed geek once asked me, “Do you know the difference between a geek and a nerd?” Puzzled, I shook my head, to which he smartly responded, “A geek has technical skills and social skills, a nerd had technical skills but no social skills … and a dork has neither.” (Snicker, snicker.)

Well, I think the local geeks have taken this definition a notch higher with the upcoming Geek 2 Chic event. Haven’t heard of it? Ah, perhaps you are a nerd. (Snicker, snicker.) Well, seeing as I was one of 851 people invited to the event via Facebook, and, therefore clearly — or at least hopefully — not a nerd, I shall tell you so that you may consider yourself among the technorati of D.C.
