Saturday, February 24, 2007: I return.

I really need to start this thing back up. I think it's a problem of focus: I'm certainly on the Internet enough, I just don't feel like blogging while I'm on it. But my longing is enough when I'm not on to warrant actually doing it.
Well, for starters, our dog is pregnant. At first, we thought that she was just not eating her treats because she's weird. Then, over night--literally--she plumped up, and we figured out that that was morning sickness. We figure that it was this husky that has been hanging around here. We don't know when the pups will come, but I'd like to see the black lab/huskies.
In other news, on a suggestion I have joined the spring play. It's a comedy called "You Can't Take it with You," and sounded pretty good during the script reading--even for my three lines. Well, first time in theatre, what did you expect?
I've also decided to restart my Transformer collection. I had, to this point, thirty-five from my childhood--in various conditions and states of completion. I am now getting the Beast Wars tenth anniversary figures--fitting, since Beast Wars was where my collection started. I have Dinobot and Rattrap so far--a fitting pair--and they're pretty good. They each come with a DVD and a piece of Transmutate--I can't believe that they made a show accurate version of her before G1 Arcee--which were larger than I expected the whole figure to be. Sadly, they had no movement, and connected to her with non-ball joints--to sum up, it's a simple, barely possible display piece. I was really hoping they would combine to form a fully-articulated toy. Later, I'll get the world's smallest line. That should arrive on the twenty-seventh. I believe they're roughly the size of capsule toys.
I need to divide my time more evenly. I'm meaning to read a couple of books and start a comic, but I end up just playing games--when I'm not doing my homework, that is.
