Coffee pots and random

tsukinofaeriiHave you ever had one of those random urges that make no sense at the time, but you want to do them anyways? I do. Every time I walk through the door to work I find myself itching to see if I can pick the lock. Every. Single. Time. I know I shouldn't, because lol, I have a key! Why would I need to pick the lock? And anyway, there's probably some sort of security measures in place—it's an inner door, so maybe not, but IDK. That would be embarrassing, getting picked up by security for picking a lock I have a key to.
It looks like a simple lock to pick though. ¬¬;;
In other news, I have crafted a piece of person canon for myself. Yesterday afternoon, as I poured myself a cup of coffee and subsequently poured it all over the counter, I decided that clearly Tony Stark has built his own coffee maker and carafe. See, I have yet to meet a coffee pot that doesn't spill when pouring the first cup. It's always sort of freaky. I mean, we put a man on the moon, but we can't make a coffee pot that doesn't spill. WTF, world? Tony would take that as a personal affront, probably, and redesign the carafe. Then, while he's at it, why not build a better machine? Instead of one carafe, make it three smaller ones, set to go off at intervals, so that the coffee is always fresh. Don't forget that it needs to measure out the grounds and water itself, and it needs a back-up battery so that it doesn't lose the time (or the programmed brew timer) in the event of a short power outage. Knowing Tony, it's probably a voice-activated AI and something of a smartass, but that's just Tony. I'm sure everyone else in the house is a little worried by the talking coffee pot.
I need to think of some issues for Tony. (Believe it or not, this is actually hard.) Specifically, defense mechanisms. It's a long long long story, but I've already used the alcoholism and am now drawing a blank for some reason. ._. I'm sure it'll come to me.
Final reason for posting on a Monday! I'm going to the midnight showing of Harry Potter tomorrow! Gods, work on Wednesday is going to be pain. :D WORTH IT.
