This article has the best picture of my creation I have yet seen. And although I
look dippy in the pictures, it's the natural, candid dippiness I felt, not a
posed "Smile and keep your eyes open into the sun" dippiness.

I really like your "creation"!  The nametag on the 'master builder' is a great
touch of detail.

Aaron, I'm very happy for you, Kristi and Nathan.  I hope you all bring a true
"fan" perspective to the Model Shop.  It's not always a fun job, there will
truely be days that you hate it -- but there will also be days where you can't
put your joy into words that you get to build LEGO and get paid for it.

Congrats!!

JohnG, GMLTC

Thanks so much. I am fully prepared for days where work is just that, and the
fun drains away. But I get frustrated with my hobby sometimes too. But this is
certainly still much more fun and exciting (and pays better) than my previous
career options.

Name the trade that does not have that!

My guess is building with LEGO is among the few career choices (for some of us
at least) where the tracks in your path don't look the same every day.

Good luck Aaron!
