The Star Wars Lego set of a Imperial Star Crusier. Sweet mother of god! $99.00 for a lego set. Two booklets of isntructions...upteen thousand pieces. Give me a break. Of course...who puts it together?
Not the 8 year old, I can tell you that much.
So after finishing turning his one closet into a shelved storage unit. I won't eve get into the details as to how wonderfully that went (read aweful) he asked if we could work on his lego set.
In my mind I am going, ok..legos versus Crackdown....legs versus crackdown...
God damned Lego's. Two hours later I have complete the basisc chasis of the Star Cruser. Its one of those builds where it is really fragile until you get almost done with the portion and then all of a sudden through the evil magic of lego its formed into some sort of plastic super object that can withstand a earthquake. I gave up at this point becuase my wrists hurt, my knees were locked up from kneeling on the floor...can't do it on a table, there are to many pieces.
So tonight, who wants to place a wager on wether I will be playing Crackdown or if I will be putting together more lego?
