Years before Eric ever entered my life, I had a very small nerdy side - but only when it came to the X-Men cartoon that was on when I was in Jr. High.
I started watching the cartoon because my little brothers were watching it and it was something to occupy my time. Rogue soon became my favorite.
Why you ask. It is because I could relate with her in some ways. I always felt that I couldn't get close to anyone. True, she can't because of her powers...with me, I just felt that getting close to someone meant they would leave. I also loved the accent.
Years later when I met Eric it was just funny that he was such a fan of the X-Men as well. Although he certainly has his favorites as well.
We loved X-men at my house too-no shame in that right! ;o) I'm glad I wasn't the only nerd-Justin thinks I'm loopy!
