Me - not much.

Well, I wrote a little on a story of mine, and I watched about an hour's worth of Vanilla Sky (fairly boring movie unfortunately, since I bought it on a hunch on DVD only because Tom Cruise's cute and Sigur Rós has two tunes in it - stupid me LOL). Then towards the evening, I went outside to "steal" some concrete drill-cores from a concrete wall below where I live.

Apparantly, groundwater started to leak into the lowermost apartements (only meant for handicapped people), so they had to dig up an area next to these apartements down to the bedrock to install a drainage pump. They also took up a doorway in the wall that had held in all the rocks and dirt they just dug up, and they did so by drilling lots of cylindrical holes in it. These cores look very interesting, smooth on the surface, with embedded stones and those inner bracings made of thick iron wire that provide structural support. Damn, they were heavy too! LOL, I brought home five of them, they're maybe about 30-35cm in length (thick wall!) and a bit over a decimeter in diameter.

I'll clean them off in the shower a bit later after I've had dinner, then I'll snap a pic of them and post up here for you to see. Very Happy

Take care everyone!
Hugs:
