I definitely miss it. It's wierd to come home after work instead of going to the school and having all this free time all of a sudden. This is what happens when you leave your house 6:00 in the morning and don't get home until just before 9:00 at night. We also worked the weekends towards the end of the six weeks.

i miss it soo much ... i had a dream about her when i fell asleep on the bus on the way home (my cousin dreamt about food ...) ... i cant wait until april 1st when i get to see her again !!!!!!

i misss it to i mean its somethign i spent the past 6 weeks on, 7 days a week. I mean my gf doesnt even get the much attention, maybe thats why she broke up with me over build season, she told me choose her or the robot and well i chose the robot

[robot180]

By the way, build season was almost seven weeks long.

Lets look at it from another perspective. How do you think your robot feels. Robots have feelings you know, at least ours did last year. Our robot last year, Twitch, gained 5 pounds in transit from not getting enough exercise. It is living. If you don't believe me, ask someone else on my team. They can confirm that Twitch weighed 129.9 lbs. before we put it in the crate and it weighed 136.4 lbs. after we took it out. It weighed in at 129.7 lbs. after we let it stretch after taking it out of the crate for a while. If our robot is living, it must have feelings and it must have been depressed everytime it was in the crate.

Maybe our team is a bit crazy, but we did see the thing twitching!

Ill tell you one thing

it was so totally weird

being HOME this last saturday afternoon!

I totally miss the robot. I wish I had more practice driving.

Miss Daisy and I, after about six weeks of tough times, have decided that we'd take about 2 weeks off... I think it's going okay, but truthfully I just can't stop thinking about her. I keep wondering, does she feel the same way about me? Hopefully when we see eachother again at the Chesapeake regional, she'll take me to far better places than I've EVER dreamed!

dont be too surprized if your bot is angry with you when you open the crate

stuffing it in a box like that?

sending it off in a cold dark truck, with little or no padding,

and not so much as a BLANKET or a PILLOW!

sitting in that warehouse for days and days, wonding what it did to deserve THIS?

I hope you at least sat down and had a nice long talk with it before you bolted the crate shut

poor thing probabally thinks its in its coffin, at the bottom of a landfill!

and I hope to God you unplugged the backup battery before you shipped it - if you left the processor running

its 16MHz clock, compaired to a human heartbeat (scaled up) - sitting in a box over night with nothing to run but no-ops

is like you sitting in the corner for 30,000 years

our robot had a lot of padding and i wanted to give her a pillow, but my engineer just looked at me really funny so she didnt get a pillow or a blanket ...

and i did have a nice long talk with her before she was closed .. and then i talked to her through the crate .... i think she knows i love her ...

I didn't really get to know ED 5.0, but I loved him from afar... You see, ED was popular, everyone wanted to be his friend, so he was always surrounded by a crowd... and me, being the shy thing that I am, just lurked on the fringes... Sigh... I miss the funny way he moves...
