Well -- it's my birthday today. I'm turning 66. To the best of my knowledge, at any rate. (Damn Fae time, not working in the normal linear fashion. . . .)

As a nice little birthday gift to myself, I've managed to finish my flux capacitor model! I bought a camera from the hotel gift shop so I could take some pictures.



It even lights up! Doesn't do much beyond that, of course, not without the proper wiring, but it's still progress. (My apologies about the quality of this next picture -- it's surprisingly hard to get a photo of something flashing.)



Anyway, maybe I'll see some of you around. I plan on getting cake at some point. What's a birthday without cake even if you're stranded?

(OOC: Pictures are thumbnails, because they're FRICKING HUGE. I gotta figure out more about the size options on my camera.)

We could make it a longer thing. Docapalooza. Hand out tiny screwdrivers as door favors.

It's pale blue. Really, it could have been much worse - and at least I'm short enough that I don't actually need the padding

Half the fun of gifts is giving them to people who don't need them!

I wonder if it's possible to combine carrot cake and chocolate cake? Though that might turn out to be one of those things that Man Was Not Meant to Bake.

(Doc's chuckling at this) Probably wouldn't be any different from some of the other events I've seen going on in there.

That's not so bad, yeah. At least you have an interesting place to live.

I don't know. I've never tried carrots and chocolate together. Might be a little frightening.

Yup. It's a comfy little nest. And low heating bills in winter.

Maybe I'll just make two cakes. You can get anything in a box here. Anything.

[clockwork-doc.livejournal.com]

Useful, then!

I see. You could also make a half-cake of each and put them side by side. Or ice them together with a little barrier in between.

Oh, that's a good idea. That's what I'll do.
