I haven’t been without a computer since last century. There’s at least a dozen desktops and laptops in my house, plus a couple of rackmount servers and if I was really hard-up, I could also browse the internet on a PS4 and a samsung smart TV.

I think the last time I was without a computer for more than a day or two was in 2007 when I spent around a week in Scotland without my laptop (I did have a Nintendo DS Lite which has a web browser). Before that it was probably some family vacation in the ‘90s before I had my own laptop.

Oh no! Do you still have a taplop? Mobile Kinja suuuuuuuuuuuuuux big time.

You’ll be typing nun then autocorrect sieves the hoe.

I have occasional access to a laptop that isn’t mine... for now. By sometime next month, I should have my own laptop again. But until then, I’ll probably have to wait until the afternoon to do K inja stuff. In happier news, I just finished putting the pistons back in Phoebe and I’m planning more bird -related posts!

That’s good news, but Phoebe deserves the limelight. You should get that taplop sooner rather than later for Quality™ posts.

You also inspired me to try my hand at a Lego model. Except I chose the hardest dang car in existence to try. It’s been coming along well but it’s going to have to be a fictional coupe version because I didn’t make it long enough. Working from scratch is hard.

Neat! I’ve been working on a Lego BMW Isetta for a few weeks  now... I’m pretty satisfied with the door, now I just need to build everything else, lol!

Haha yes you make one piece you are satisfied with and it makes another piece look weird or out of scale. It's hard. The front in particular on this car is. . . unique. . . so it kind of looks just a little like a train at the moment.
