I know the feeling.. my last building spree was in January. A rather
ill-fated attempt (my first) at a mecha... darn thing is top heavy and I'm
way too burned out to try and remedy that...

I haven't even been shopping for LEGO in... I have no idea when the last
time I really "looked" was.. at least a month, now.. and that wasn't with
the intention of buying, just to look at what sets were out. I'm half
tempted to get the Spiderman sets and I'm waiting on the Monster Studio sets
really. Just want to look at them and see if they're as promising as
pictures indicate... I really don't want more any of the SW sets other than
the small sets so I might snag some of them.. I'd love about a dozen of the
ewok "half feet" though for making dwarves, or whatnot... :)

Anyone have ideas where? What weekends of a given month work best?
