i'm going to say straight up, i love star trek. i love the new movie and might have a teeny crush on spock. i loved when the episodes were on spike every afternoon. i would come home and watch an episode or two while making dinner. it accounted for my daily dose of nerdiness and was pure bliss.
i ask, why can't my husband share this joy?
brian has become significantly more nerdy since we've been married. he has seen all the harry potter movies and even read the first chapter and a half of sorcerer's stone. this was because of an ill-conceived agreement that he reneged on - i promised i would not complain about how much sports he watched on the weekend if he would read a chapter of harry potter a night. ha. that lasted for a night and a half.
i convinced him to watch the lord of the rings trilogy with me and he actually watched the third movie by himself when i wasn't home.
he liked the part in twilight when james gets decapitated.
his life is better because i introduced him to batman: the animated series.
so why is he a star trek hater? he liked the new movie. we've seen it twice. but he insists he will not watch the series.
i guess he feels about it the same way i feel when i come downstairs and see nba basketball (which he doesn't even really like) on the tv. a slight revulsion and the sting of impending boredom. but i sit and watch. because that's what married people do. so what if i am reading a book while doing it?
