Holy cow, the AC is off and my sauna of a room isn’t sweltering
Apparently Fall is finally here. If this keeps up, I may just pull the A/C unit out of the window and let the fresh air really flow. You can’t really know how much a room needs fresh air until it has some. Shame I gotta work tonight, it’s supposed to drop to 48 degrees. That’s sleeping weather. Oh well, I’ll have to just deal with the 60’s tomorrow.
So Serenity kicked ass. I was a little bummed at the inevitable “some of the characters have to die” bit, but that’s Sci Fi for you. They just can’t keep people alive. I’ll post a longer review once I’ve digested it all.
Wallace and Gromit was better the second time around. Really. Go see this movie.
I finally got the workspace cleared off for construction of the Lego Case. I also sorted through a few thousand Legos. I have quite a stockpile, but there are only certain types that will work for the case. The lots I got off of Ebay had lots of weird specialty pieces, when all I really needed bricks. If only I knew then what I knew now.
Anyway, here’s the pile on the bed: (yeah, the camera phone is crappy. Anyone want to get me a digital camera as an early Birthday present? )
That’s on the bed. And really a damn big pile. I only got half way through, but I should have enough pieces to make a big dent in the case. Or at least a big construction of the case. At least the specialty pieces gave me a few ideas - this is gonna turn out pretty cool.
