One project done, one on the way
Alright, so, for the past week or two I've been tweeting more about what I've been doing than bothering to write anything on this livejournal. But the gist of things is, I got very nostalgic for those old arts and crafts projects we were always doing in elementary school. And then I realised, hey, I'm an adult! I can do whatever I damn well please!
So I did arts and crafts. ^-^
We had this big piece of foam display board stuff that was going to waste in the garage, so I cut a bit out of it and painstakingly measured and sliced (with help from parents, as I am pants at measuring and slicing) and made some little shelves on which I could display my collection of Tron diecasts. It's all painted black with blue lines now and looks AWESOME. Alas, I do not have a camera, so I cannot show you the awesome, but take my word for it, it's shiny.
Anyways, now that that project is finished, I can work on new projects! Or rather, return to older projects. I still have a room to clean, a closet to sort, a website to build (several, actually), and in 5-10 days, a hard drive to back up. That's right, I went to amazon and got a 500gb external hard drive, because I was in desperate need of one. And I got it for free.
...Well, okay, I got it for $99. But considering I got $100 in amazon gift cards for christmas (thank you brother and uncle) I still had a moment of squee and a dance when the final register price was $0.00.
Yeeeup, today looks good. If I get some work done, and later am allowed to take the car to Tyler and do some store browsing, I will be a happy camper.
