Geeks and the like

Today was Aileen's awards breakfast for the final time as a 3rd grader. She sees me and flags me down to let me know that when she ran for secretary of the school, that the results arei n and she lost to a "geek". I tried with all my might not to bust out laughing as Aileen is, well, a geek (case in point she got Principle's list, all year honor roll, and perfect attendance as awards today). When I told her this, she puts her hands on her hips and difiantly states that "But I don't dress like one, Mom" I lost it. I tucked my head and darted for my seat before she could see me laugh so hard I was crying.
