For whatever reason, I’ve been obsessing over LEGOs lately. In particular, the Classic Space LEGOS of the late 70s, early 80s, which are easy to geek out over considering the massive amount of great, creative goodness out there.

Anyway, yesterday was officially the 50th anniversary of LEGOs. I didn’t mention anything because I hate piling on with me-tos. I was going to link to a good roundup from a site I’ve been ogling for the past two weeks, Brothers-Brick.com, but their last week’s worth of posts just disappeared. Instead, I’ll link to this Gizmodo post on the best LEGO sets in history.

This recent Christmas, my daughter received her first DUPLO blocks. She’s a bit unclear on the concept…after building pixel-y representations of most of Yo Gabba Gabba’s cast, she refused to allow anyone to make anything else of the blocks. We’ll have to get more.

I do have visions of a creating a basement LEGOland for the Julia and her soon-to-be-named brother. I’ll work the space monorail.
