A Very Geeky Christmas Tree
Our friends come over and admire our tree. They ‘ooh’ and ‘ahh’ and tell us how cute the ornaments are that our kids made, how funny the three wise mice are, and then they exclaim “Cool!” as they catch sight of the Millenium Falcon swooping down from a branch high up in the tree.
That’s right. We have a geek’s tree.
On our tree we have Luke Skywalker, R2-D2, C3-PO, an AT-AT and the Millenium Falcon. We have the Shuttlecraft Galileo with Spock on board wishing everyone happy holidays and ‘live long and prosper’. Indiana Jones cracks his whip on another branch. And not to ignore the fantasy side of our geekiness, we have a dragon wrapped around a castle and a wizard hunched over a crystal ball.
On Christmas day, our geeky side is revealed even further when the wrapping paper comes off. Gaming books, collectible card game boosters, minis and figurines, dice, and movies all reveal that side of our natures. That side that is more at home at a gaming table than a dinner table set with crystal.
What about your tree? What kind of ornaments do you display on yours?
