It really is amazing that I managed to get married a second time. Especially considering that during our courtship my husband considered the computer date as the pinnacle of romance. This involved sitting around watching him and his mates play DOOM for the duration of a weekend. Six computers all networked together with six bona-fide nerds makes for a surreal scene. I had to navigate the labyrinth of cabling in order to avoid the cheesy deck shoes, the Hungry Jack’s burgers ‘stashed’ for ‘Ron’ and the previous evening’s communal mattress. Heaven forbid you should accidentally trip over the sound cable on the way to the loo and disconnect the Altec Lansing speakers responsible for amplifying the spray of the Gatling gun and the diabolic drooling and growling. I’m fairly certain that was the only time the nerds even looked at me. It makes me wonder why on earth these gaming companies haven’t considered the female market.
