I simply have so many books, and have such idiosyncratic tastes that they end up either duplicating books I already have or getting something that probably won't be read in this century.Aaron Poundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11747596648152141394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3304302673132222419.post-35269523057106664502013-12-30T21:45:48.393-05:002013-12-30T21:45:48.393-05:00I am from the Blog Hop and just wanted to stop in ...I am from the Blog Hop and just wanted to stop in and say hello.

It was a star projector. I spent more than $100 on it - and it does look pretty amazing... when it works. It projects green stars on the ceiling (which move and rotate) and a beautiful blue nebulous star cloud. But it only works for a prolonged period if you smack it really hard at random intervals. Otherwise, all the stars dim & flicker out. Which would be cause for great alarm in real life! Not quite the relaxation I was hoping for...<br />I did think about getting a sweet Lego mug that you can build on from them this Christmas. But alas, I did not.<br /><br />Anyway, here's my FF if you're interested!:<br />http://thepookapicks.wordpress.com/2013/12/29/feature-follow-10/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3304302673132222419.post-78063608054441074562013-12-28T21:59:27.791-05:002013-12-28T21:59:27.791-05:00I am having an LOTR marathon this weekend.
