Accountants, Gamers, and Nerds
Accountants seem to be one of those professions that are universally classified as pure geek in popular culture. Watch any episode of Law & Order where the investigation leads to a trail of money, and at some point a bow-tie wearing, nervous, shifty weakling will be accosted, and the initials CPA will be associated with him. Computer techs used to get the identical treatment, until the emergence of shows like Chuck and the insufferable douchebag that hocks Macs. Douchey is better equated with lacrosse players and popped collars on golf shirts, which is decidedly no longer geeky. So why is the accountant the Lone Staple Nerd archetype among actual well-paying jobs?

Welcome to my attempt at giving myself a space and forcing myself to commit to writing. I expect that soon I will have a wide-ranging and adoring audience, by which I mean myself and my wife. What I really want to accomplish is a dedicated approach to writing, whether it is self-discovery or just bitching about the Redskins. I’ll post some of my older writing as well from time to time. Not that there is a lot of it.
