So far, I&#8217;ve received boxes 54 (Smart Home), 55 (High Roller), and 56 (Demon Seed). I&#8217;ve created some project pages on my internal wiki, but have made no progress toward assembling the kits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have a large box of unpainted D&amp;D minis sitting here next to me that were originally intended for a campaign I created for a bunch of friends. Of course, this was all before the COVID-19 craziness. We haven&#8217;t played yet, but I do want to start chipping away at painting all of these. Eventually we <em>will <\/em>use them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>About a month ago my main PC crapped out. I decided to do something I&#8217;ve never done before; spec out a high-end machine and order all new parts. I did such, and got all of the components from NewEgg, however the motherboard arrived with damage. I got a return RMA but, because of COVID-19, the RMA took a long time. I should be getting the new motherboard this Monday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The main 37-gallon fish tank needed a thorough cleaning, so Cari and I took it into the garage and emptied it last week. I&#8217;ll be spending a good chunk of time today cleaning everything. I suspect that the tank will be back in place this weekend. Currently, the fish are is a surrogate 10-gallon tank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Still working on the DeLorean model monthly. I received a special-order package of several mods for the kit. More to come on this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Movies added to the library this week:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt8579674\/\">1917<\/a> (HD)<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt1502397\/\">Bad Boys for Life<\/a> (HD)<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt8946378\/\">Knives Out<\/a> (HD)<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt2527338\/\">Star Wars: Episode IX &#8211; The Rise of Skywalker<\/a> (HD)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I really need to get back on board with blogging.
