A Wiki Walk...ish

Well, I really wanted to put up a picture of my first attempt at miniature painting, but my camera's auto focus is not up to the task. The camera could totally achieve it if it would give me manual focus control, but I don't think there's a switch for that.

It's like trying to get a command line on my iPod.

So...I really wish I'd had some snowpants and a good friend or two around today. The foot of snow that dropped was the most fantastic packing snow I've really ever seen and building a snow fort would have been the coolest thing ever! And I could finally join club G.R.O.S.S.

Or enter a monkery. Which would be more gardening and less tree climbing. Unless I found one in Fiji.

Speaking of Fiji, part of me thinks it would be superbly awesome to be a nuclear engineer on a ballistic missile sub in the Pacific. Small spaces are comforting for me. Although I'd have to go officer. Then maybe I could buck for Captain! Ooh. That would be pretty cool.

"This is Admiral Wall of Starfleet Command...sorry, I blew that." Oh, that line brings back some memories. I hope Dave or Dad reads this blog. Perhaps it will make them snicker. :D I really miss the simulator days. I have some really fond memories of that period in my life. I wonder if I could make it happen again.

  1. Club G.R.O.S.S. or the engineering room of a ballistic missle sub in the Pacific. Boggles the mind. :D
