Bloggy Stuff

I thought of a dragging dog, and how i could use a knitted resistance-range sensor that pulls it. Well, I'm not butching a real draggy dog toy, and didn't have time to make one. Sooo, stroke sensor with a soft stuffed animal. DI, here I come! I got a cutie.  Almost didn't want to ruin him by cutting and pulling out his insides.  "Well, why don't you go get another, crappier animal and use that?"  "because.  Two stuffed animals would be... too many."  "Not really!"  A male saying this...?! "Why?"  "You've hugged it, like, ten different times just since we left the restaurant."    :[ ! But I can DO THIS!  so I did.  Ran out of time to go to DI again anyway.  Confidence!   such a lovable face!  *clears throat*  Anyway, I decided that cutting his bottom open would be the least ugly-ifying.     lets have the stroke sensors where you hold him, thought I.  also this was gonna look...

I have no idea what to do.  I thought time was going to be a challenge this semester, but the real challenge has been "ideas."  I will figure it out after spring break, I thought. Only a week to make this thing?! So much for experimenting with the dual-tone library. Simple simple.

I loved that "Japanese" Black Trefele thingy...  num!  I saved some seeds but hardly in a pro manner, so think I will get some peat pots and try starting them, maybe buy some on amazon just to be safe. (Love it, sure, but not the same as what I was shooting for.  And like one person said, salt was not only unnecessary, it was sort of a bad idea.  Still drawn to the option of those amazing, delicious when salted and raw 'maters.) That other black one I got was NOT impressive.  I would need to look at my post to get the names now.  Yay blog archives! I am still looking for that cherry tomato flavor that haunts my memories.  The yellow things everyone raved about were not good in my book.  The only time I liked them was when sliced on top of a pre-cooked pizza, and, hey, it doesn't take much to be better than corporate sauce in a can. so I looked around, found some good sites.  But alas, growing conditions change the game by a LOT!  ...

An Adventure with  Lanetta Sova!!!  The Deal: I take care of the Scratch Coding, Lanetta master-minds the controls. connected wires ready for class behold the makey makey! We had challenges with just being creative.  [We were both busy over the weekend and didn't want to commit to anything ridiculous.]  When we originally presented our idea, [things went well, then some over-achiever inspired our instructors to tell us...] we needed to be more creative. [I'm a little glad, cuz Lanetta's idea was cool.]  Our final project idea ended up being to have a pong game that required team work and the controllers being water. The two players must hold hands and race from one end of the table to the other to move the paddles. (Only one player is holding directly to ground, the second player is holding ground by holding hands with player one.)  [I originally thought this would be something to  sabotage  people with, like yank them from the...
