I decided to make this blog, cause I’m bored. I’m bored because i have to wait for the installation of a game.
So my rant mode is on
I haven’t played and tinkered on my LEGO lately. This is cause of work(and more the amount) but also because I’m having an idea and parts block.
The ideas I have are rather limited because of my prodigious lack of blocks.
I have a few ideas of how to fix this, but then I find a new problem, space. or rather the lack of it. See, my home ain’t big. It’s 45m² including the alley(it’s a jungle atm) I am supposed to call my back yard. My guess, I have about 30m² worth of living space. Almost half of that is my bedroom, which is divided into a big closet and my bed leaving a small space to walk in.
The other half is my livingroom. Which is rather impractical. I have a chimney(well, the stone part of it) which takes a rather dominant place in the whole of it. I also sits inconveniently in the middle of the livving room against the wall. infront of it is my furnace. It’s big, it’s black and it’s a big stand-in-the-way. Opposite of the Chimney is my couch. It takes up almost all of the wall. the rest of the room is divided by my rather large desk(I wub it!) and a selfbuild cabinet which towers over my TV and houses all of my books, stereo and consoles). The livingroom also sports a comfy chair(which isn’t that comfy) and a small table.
What’s left of the space is my kitchen(with fridge, washer and dryer) and behind it my toiletroom with said toilet and shower.
so I decided to do it in small steps until I cannot conrtol myself any longer and place a gargantuan order from some shop to fill the small nudges and the like with blocks.
This week I’m expecting the following sets:
– 7628 Indiana Jones: Peril in Peru
– 7979 LEGO Castle Advent Calendar
and besides that some upgrade to my machines, oh yes! machines!
i recently acquired a second computer that is now functioning as my communications comp.
It sports Linux, and uses birds for my general communication(pidgin!)
other then that…stil acquiring courage to step back into the umbrageous world of IRC. It’s filled with weird people, people like me! (that is geeks and nerds fyi) but also with all other kind of people!
My best conversations were in IRC, sad as it sounds, and they were about Artificial Intelligence(see a few posts back) and all the greater things life has to offer.
oh and before I forget, i love thesaurus, improves my vocabulary, don’t you think?
