My Other Post is a Browncoat

Jan 31, 2012 12:32

One of my attorneys recently had a baby girl.  He dodged telling anyone the baby's name at first, but finally admitted that they'd named her "River".  Some of the other attorneys made fun of him for picking a "hippie name", but he insisted that it wasn't.  Knowing that he's a bit of a closet geek, I asked, "Tam, or Song?"  Turns out he didn't know who River Song was (yet), but that his daughter was in fact named after River Tam from "Firefly".

Tomorrow he goes on paternity leave for a few months, so this morning I left a little gift in his office.  Two little "onesies" for his daughter.  One says, "I can kill you with my brain."  The other says, "My other onesie is a BROWNCOAT".  Listening to him laugh as he opened them made it totally worthwhile.  He knew I was behind them without even asking.

It's all about sharing the geek love, people.

geekery, work
