grown-ups can play too

I'll admit it this time: I'm fudging the timestamp. I actually got home after midnight, so technically this should be the next post, but whatever.

I've been over at Skippy's place hanging out and playing with LEGOs. Just before they went to bed I caught the two six-year-olds looking at us enviously, I think.

We, of course, weren't merely playing but blocking out and building sets for our upcoming full-length all-LEGO adaptation of a literary classic, which will be something of an undertaking, albeit a cool one. None of the brick films I've encountered so far tackled such a literary, er, piece of literature, so it could well be groundbreaking in several aspects. Particularly because it will kick ass, and all.

    You didn't go to bed at my house! ;)

    The kids were envious. They don't play LEGOs much on their own, but when they see me fiddling with the bricks they want to join in. Right after waking up this morning, one of them started building a "library" (hard to tell what it is without the explanation). I caught her studying your folding-wall stairwell facade with deep interest.

    And don't be giving away our Secret Project! Competitors will beat us to the product!

    re: the I/they controversy: I have changed it already.

    And as for our secret project? What secret project? I know not of what you speak.
