It stopped raining in Pennsylvania. That’s probably not the greatest intro sentence I’ve ever written, but I’m busy today and I need to wrap this up quickly.

Yesterday was a bad day in the Lego Calendar. That means today will be double-awesome, according to Dan Logic.

And today’s item is…

Oh go straight to hell, Lego. Go to hell and don’t come back until you realize what you’ve done.

A desk? Really? A desk?

It’s not even a desk. It’s a plank of plastic. A person must use every imagination chemical in the brain in order to look at this and say, “What a lovely, full-featured desk.” You get six lousy pieces. Six. And not one of those pieces is a sausage.

After yesterday’s disappointment, I did some online research. My hope was that this year’s calendar would have at least the same number of pieces as last year’s. Let’s see if this equation works out.

On the left is the pieces in last year’s calendar, in the middle is this year’s Lego count, and on the right is an accurate drawing of my heart. Boo!

You owe me 39 pieces, Lego Calendar. That’s about another 6.5 days of crappy Lego items. Well? Where are they? Don’t look at your shoes, Lego Calendar. The answer is not on your shoes.

Grrr.

And what’s that white slab supposed to be, because it certainly isn’t a laptop or a computer or anything. Is that where Lego people are meant to slam their heads after opening lackluster calendars?

I should be thankful for the two coffee mugs. They are kind of cool.

At least Robot Snowman, who loves paper work, will enjoy the desk.

Aww, look how happy he is.

Day 8 Rating: 0.5 out of 4 (Points deducted because…come on!)

To add much needed substance to this scene, Monkey Woman showed up to renew her annual Monkey License.

UPDATE: I’ve been informed that this item may in fact be a Prison Bed. I’m not sure if I buy that. Why is the mug so close to the pillow? Still, if this is a prison bed, I will raise the point value to a worthy 1.3.
