Jirou's Sleepy Naptime

Life just doesn't stop! I'm so sleeeppy, I don't like working this haaaaard. But Yuki-kun and I managed to finish the bare bones of the bacteria detector... albeit, with a bit of a bang. We didn't have to call the fire department this time, though! Just needed to use the fire blanket. This bacteria project is more exhausting than ever and I'm so out of my depth, but it's really rewarding at the end of the day. And the cat word bank is starting to draw to a close, so we might be able to start trying that out sometime next month.

I want to do something mechanically simple to make my brain stop hurting. Anyone have any stuff they want fixed? Like anything. Clocks, toasters, showers. Whatever.

Contacted the bacteria article man...and he emailed back and it kinda went back and forth! He's really nice and willing to put up with all of my stupid questions since I don't know much biology beyond what we did in high school. But as for how the bacteria might be able to be detected by chemicals, he said that he'd conducted an experiment that I really had to come to England in person and see that would help me get it more.

I told him it would have to wait until the New Year or after, because one, I'm really busy, but also two, because I want to understand the stuff he's talking about before I go see him! Gaaaaakkkuuun, can you translate some chemistry into japanese for me? Or English too! That works! I don't get much of his technical explanations. Maybe I shouldn't have morphed into physics mumbo-jumbo when he asked for an explanation of what I was thinking about doing....

He also said that I should set up a bacteria culture myself to understand it better, but that's not ever going to happen. For one, Marui-kun works with food, so not at home, because that's asking for something to go wrong. And work is so messy, that it might accidentally get lost or opened, which is worse. I can just look at the Bio department's stuff, I think.

But I really hope that I can get this project working. I really want to make an invention that can really make a difference instead of just increasing convenience of life.

Hee. That was fun~ Thanks for the trip, Kei-kun!

I'm almost done with your personal warmer, Kite Eishirou-kun! Your specs were a bit...boring, so I added some features I thought you might like~ Since you're a policeman, hopefully they'll be useful :) You can pick it up tomorrow, or if you're too busy, I can send Yuki-kun to deliver to your office!

Hmmm....anyone else have any ideas for stuff they want me to make? It's strange only having one project to do. Especially when I'm still waiting on the bio department and the linguistics department to finish. If it takes any longer, I might just try to compile it myself and see how much faster than them I can go.

Would inventing an idea maker be redundant? Because I'd like one right now :/ I've gotten so bored, I actually just slept through all of yesterday. It was fuuuuuuun, but now, I'm just more tired :(

Gakkun, want to have a office-chair racing day?

Today was interesting...I guess. Kinda. Not really. We had a mini fire in the tech department. Luckily. I was the only one who got set on fire. And stop, drop and roll has never been so useful~! I've got a minor burn on my hand and got wrapped up in the fire blanket, which really stinks. I don't know what they cover it in, but that smells bad :/ I took two showers, and the smell still wouldn't go away.

But yeah. Bandages for a couple days then lotsa burn cream for awhile after that and no wearing long sleeved shirts until it's fully healed. It's not so bad as skin grafts or something...but yeah. I'm supposed to stay off work for a week.

I'm kinda sleepy, but the pain doesn't really do much for sleeping. So it's been four hours and I'm bored already. Anybody want to come and entertain me? ^__^

Kirihara Akaya-kun? Is it possible to borrow a couple of small dogs from your shelter? It's for science and awesomenessssssss. Do you know any well-behaved ones?

I've been working on blueprints for Gakkun's idea about a portable mobile charger. Well no. I stole the blueprints from Kaguya-senpai and made them better and more efficient. I think I have it down, but I need some tech circuitry to make my idea of the human body's natural electricity acting as a charger to work for real, so when I'm back in Japan, I'll get that done~!

Oh, and Inui Sadaharu-kun! I'll be back in Japan on Friday. Are you free to show me the car blueprints then? While I'm waiting on paperwork for the animals to be allowed for the animal translator, I can work on making the car perfect.

Jirou~
