Bad Timing…
Posted by Erin, the RobotGrrl on Wednesday, May 7th, 2008
Wowza! I caught a really doozie cold. It sucks!
It has taken all of my energy away from making the Styrobots (more on that later) which I’ll be using to fundraise money to go to Stanford.
Speaking of taking energy away… our power will be cut today! I hope that my fever won’t drive me insane. I’ll probably read Foundation by Isaac Asimov, or something
Thanks for hanging in there…
Welcome!
Welcome to RobotGrrl's blog! The posts that are updated here explain the various projects that I am working on, including robots, programs, Apps, photography, and explorations within sociable robotics.
