Skylight

So my room, being the one foot wide closet that it is, has no windows. In lieu of that I have a skylight instead.

Which, up until yesterday afternoon was covered because when I first moved into this place the light it provided was several suns bright and, as I worked nights, I couldn't take it. I covered it with something makeshift the same day as the '03 blackout and upgraded that to a wax-paper creation in the later days so that some light came through, but nothing as before.

Well I don't know if the color green of my bedroom walls sucks up light like a sponge or what, but I decided to redo the cover I placed over the skylight so that some more light could come through during the day. This, however, was much the task because millions of bugs apparently had come in to die in the space between the skylight and where the cover was blocking it. I had to go onto the roof, fiddle with the pyramid-shaped glass structure that sat on top of it for an hour to get in to that space on top and sweep it out with a broom. It was tres gross.

So anyway, after cleaning it all up and examining my work I realized it looked really awesome without any cover at all and, presumably, the light would be of a manageable level that didn't matter too much anyway as I'm out of the house during the day most of the time now anyway.

I decided to take photos! Joyous!

For some reason I wasn't able to really get in my purple Ikea desk, so you'll just have to take my word that it is the r0×0r.
