Rain

By golly, we are getting a lot of it.   And this is Ireland, where we're used to rain.

The best news in forever

I don't know how often I've mentioned this here, but if you follow me on tumblr you've probably heard me ranting about getting bad headaches every day. But hey hey hey, guess what? We finally know what causes them, and even better, how to fix them. It turns out the muscles down my neck and back have been badly screwed up (for a long time it seems) and have been restricting the blood supply to my head. So little wonder it's been so painful since forever.   But even better, it's quite easily fixed

Ask Brickeens

Seeing as these entries are a thing again, I might as well do it like I did back in 2010. So, ask me questions, and I'll hit you with a tennis racket.

The October Spirit

So I was out for a cycle yesterday evening, which was nice, apart from one little thing. I passed a house that had Christmas lights up.   whyyyyyyyyyyyy

Parts Order

Cool stuff, except for one thing. You see the black palm trunk pieces at the very front? I ordered 40 of those. And I got five.   But obviously, everything pales in comparison to the TRANSPARENT ORANGE CHAINSAWS.

Quite A Scare

Dad broke his neck and his back today. Thankfully, thankfully, thankfully, his spine is intact so he isn't paralyzed, but I'm in shock about the whole thing.

Doctor Who

I think I'm going to have to give in and start watching it. Though... where on earth do I start?

Slightly Entertaining Picture Of The Day

I've never seen cows group together so tightly in a large field before. The pic doesn't show them very well, but there's at least seven or eight together there. They're obviously plotting something.

Visa

So in order to travel to the US me and my Dad both need a Visa. Mine is still valid from last year, but Dad had to renew his for this year. You have to fill out this online form thing in order to validate it and I had forgotten how good some of the questions were. You have to confirm that you're not a Nazi or a terrorist.

I'm building

In an absolutely reckless fit of not being cripplingly exhausted and/or stressed, I started making something the other day and I kind of like where it's going. I also logged into my flickr account for the first time since like 2012 or something.

My School Life

I think it can be best be described as working hard, getting sick, missing school, working even harder to make up for missing school, getting sick and missing more school, working even harder, getting even sicker, etc.   I've always cared an awful lot about doing well in school, because how I perform in school is important later in life. I've always worked very hard in school.   But what do I get for working hard? Depression. Health problems without solutions. Frankly, it isn't worth it. I feel

Tamaru

This is what I get for drawing while feeling lightheaded. His mask is so bad it's not even funny and some of the perspectives are really off.   Inspired by McToran Tamaru.

Teal Toa Wip

This wouldn't exist if it wasn't for Sumiki's Glatorian Kahi MOC. I saw the chest, thought "Needs less flat" and then this came out. Ironically, I think the chest on this is the worst part of the MOC.     I know what you're all going to say - you're going to say "Brickeens?! What's that lime Kanohi doing there? Replace it with a teal or grey one!" But that's not happening, because once I get the necessary pieces, I'm giving this guy lime highlights. Teal and grey is pretty boring and would se
