...or an Engineer in Training.
1. You can’t use your
home office because its looks like a cross between Radio Shack and a place
where computers go to die.
2. You have a credit
card for Fry’s Electronics.
3. You get a letter
from your Internet provider saying you need to upgrade your service package because
you’re a “heavy Internet user”.
4. Your son gets
grounded from his laptop so he decides to build his own using spare parts from
the home office (aka computer junkyard), and hides it in his room so he can
continue to play games online when you aren’t home.
5. You’ve purchased three
different Parental Control software programs for your sons computer, and he’s
managed to hack them all so he can have unlimited time and access to the
Internet.
6. You have to
purchase all your husband’s clothing because otherwise he will look ridiculous.
7. Coffee and
chocolate are food group.
8. There is an SOP
(Standard Operating Procedure) for every family vacation.
9. Video games are a competitive
sport.
10. Members of your
household attend a ComicCon conference in your area at least once a year.
Oh my... I thought I was the only one... Seriously, I live with a Mechanical Engineer AND an Engineer in Training, Evil Genius and The Professor, respectively. :-) I can so relate!
ReplyDeleteMy husband has built his own arc reactor and is designing his own Iron Man suit, for fun. If nothing else it makes excellent blog fodder.
HAHAHA....that's fantastic! My husband is an Electrical Engineer and my son is in training (leans towards Computer Engineer). You should have seen his last Science Fair project...I'm shocked Homeland Security wasn't called to investigate what was being built in my garage.
