27.09.2011 off topic part 3

I called Kim around midnight because there was something I needed to find out.

Was going to call around 9-10 but I postponed it and when I finally did call I woke her up.

The conversation tickled my funny bone but wasn't very fruitful (ended with me saying 

I'd call her early in the morning to get the info). I realized that she's helped me with a lot 

that I take for granted so I decided I'd give her the owl as a small thank you. 

Looked the owl over again and the eyes had to go so I made a new pair, and another, and another and in the end, after gluing on the pair I liked the most I had a few left over.  Decided to make a small box to put the leftovers in and add it as a bonus. One side was red and the other was yellow.

Brain came up with the bright idea of having the penguin standing on a black box so I scrapped the yellow and red and pulled out my razor thin black paper. Had to use two layers and because I wanted a big box it got very difficult. Took ages to get it right and in the end, even with the double  layers, it didn't feel sturdy enough. The black box was also too big for a few pairs of owl eyes so I glued the yellow box in the middle of one (made the black box sturdier and it could now store the owl eyes properly) and for the second I just glued/taped on miscellaneous pieces of paper. 

Wasn't happy with the result so I looked through my scrap box (filled with pictures I'd cut out of an old biology book) and found an adequate one. Pulled off the different paper pieces and taped the biology picture in there instead. The end.

Now 02:11 in the morning.
Going to have a hell of a time waking up to go to the office.
