What Is It?

Nerd Awareness Month is exactly what it sounds like. It is an entire month devoted to celebrating and sharing all the things that deem you worthy of the title of Nerd. It started out as a random idea to wear a nerdy or pop culture related t-shirt everyday for the month of July of this year in celebration of my first trip to San Diego Comic Con, and of my introduction into an amazing nerd community. Then my friend suggested I spread this idea and it was her who first dropped the term "Nerd Awareness Month" on me. All at once I realized it had to be done. And so it will be.

So what do you need to know? Well for starters Nerd Awareness Month will be for the entire month of July 2011, including the days after Comic-Con is over (*tear*). Everyone is invited to take part in it, and its designed to be fun and informative to the general population. There will be a page of suggestions on how to celebrate this, helpful links, photos, videos, and all that fun stuff. Basically everything is open to suggestion, I am just here to be the supreme organizer/leader/go-to-gal. 

Have fun and let the planning begin!
