36-year-old CLAIRE sits in the front passenger seat – she's tall and her MOM, seated behind her, is accommodating like that. DAD is behind the wheel beside her – he always drives if he's in the car.
CLAIREClaire was certain her Mom had said they'd given a big box of all the Legos to her brother years ago.
(pointing to a shelf in front of the car)
Does that box that says "Legos" actually have Legos in it?
MOM
(leans over so she can read the box)
Oh, that box has a ton in it.
CLAIRE
Really?
MOMDad backs the car out and remotely closes the garage door.
Yeah.
CLAIRECUT TO:
(to Dad)
Would you help me get that box down when we get back from dinner?
DAD
Sure.
The corners of Claire's mouth rise: a mischievous grin. Her eyes twinkle with the possibilities.
3 years ago on TTaT: Yeah, I watch Smallville
Jackpot! I'd be so excited if I found this stash in my garage. Although, since my dad asks me to clean out a new storage area every time I go home, maybe I already have too many stashes in my life.
ReplyDeleteLet us know what you build!
What I really need at this point is somewhere to spread it all out so I can leave it out.
ReplyDeleteBut with 23 POUNDS of legos (the crazy weigh-your-pet part of Wii Fit + finally comes in handy), I should be able to make something quasi epic.
I recently collected my own stash of Legos from my parents' house. *drools*
ReplyDeleteI need to air out/dust off mine a little, but found some cool things this eve.
ReplyDelete1. my firefighting boat that was a birthday present that my brother put together before I got to. When it comes to Legos, I do not forget such transgressions!
2. A couple cool astronaut figures and a knight.
3. A construction claw that can be lowered/raised by winch.
Hope you share some pics of your creations too!
