According to Cosmo magazine geeks are the better kind of guy to date. Below are Cosmo's 7 reasons why geeks make better boyfriends. A few apply to me...Especially #3. :)
-----
1. He’s capable of memorizing every line of Star Wars and Lord of the Rings so he shouldn’t have trouble remembering your birthday and favorite kind of flowers.
2. Sure, he may secretly want to get it on with his super hot neighbor, but knowing that you’re the hottest girl he’s ever been with will probably keep him from cheating.
3. Geeks tend to be tech-savvy. Which means not only will he be able to fix a computer problem and upgrade your software, but he’ll actually enjoy doing it.
4. Although the dumb jock thing is a total cliche, you’re unlikely to meet a dorky guy who can’t string together a sentence and carry on an intelligent conversation.
5. Since he’s supersmart and probably already making a ton of money, he won’t think being a roadie for Vampire Weekend is a great “career opportunity.”
6. He was probably bullied during high school so he’ll be sympathetic when you vent about the office bitch...and help you plot a plan to bring her down.
7. He’ll never hog the bathroom while he’s manscaping.

Fact #9: I've been super busy...
…and I haven’t had my computer for about a week. I’ve felt lost, but no fear. We’ve reunited.
So, last Thursday night Devon and I went to Omaha to see John Mayer and Michael Franti & Spearhead in concert. It was an outstanding concert. I only knew one of Michael Franti’s songs, but Devon knew a lot of his music. He was so down to earth, running around the audience and bringing people up on stage to “play guitar”…it gave it a more intimate feeling. I loved that about him. John Mayer was also amazing. I could’ve listened to him all night if I had the chance. Plus I got to spend an evening with my wonderful boyfriend.
Then Saturday came and began what turned out to be a long, yet fun week with some talented singers and some of my best friends at the U. The Chamber Singers toured to Chicago making stops in Sioux City, Council Bluffs, Des Moines and Minneapolis throughout the week. I met some of the nicest people, played with some of the cutest dogs, made new friends and memories, and performed my most memorable performance inthe most beautiful venue I’ve ever seen.
While tour is an exhausting time with periodic times of drama (mostly with those diva-like sopranos), it really is a blast. I get to do what I love to do (travel and sing) with people some of my greatest friends. The only thing I would’ve changed is that I would’ve enjoyed Devon's company. He was in choir last semester, but he transferred, therefore leaving me and the choir behind.
Guess this means that we’ll have to make up for it some other time. Roadtrip, Devon?

Fact #7: I love concerts.
I love music. What I love more that music is to listen to live music. I've been to a few concerts in my life and this spring I have two more outstanding concerts to look forward to; one of them is only two days away.
John Mayer.
I have the best boyfriend in the world (Fact #8). This past Christmas he gave me tickets to see one of my favorite musicians live in concert. I've been waiting anxiously for three months, getting more excited each time I heard a song of his come on the radio. And if you don't listen to the radio, he's on there a lot. So, I'm pretty freakin' excited (and yes, that's an understatement).
A three month wait has quickly turned into a two day wait.
And only about another two and a half months until the Nickelback/Shinedown concert...but...who's counting?
