My sister (who lives several continents away) sent me a huge LEGO pirate ship . The set number 31367 31387 for those interested. I spent the evening building with the help of my 13 year old. I also took two or three drams.
I have no regrets.
Edit2: thanks for the birthday wishes. :-)
You are absolutely correct. I updated the post and I totally do not need glasses. At all.
