Remote control
Roboboa requires 4 x D cell batteries, and 4 x AAA batteries for the remote control.
Functions
The remote control has 7 action buttons, an 8-way directional pad, and 2 mode buttons. The remote also functions as a flashlight. The Strafe/Lazer/Cannon functions allow Roboboa to send commands to other WowWee robots such as other Roboboas, Robosapien, Robosapien v2, Roboreptile, Roboraptor, Robopet, or Roboquad.
Action Buttons
Roboboa operates in distinct modes, accessed by pressing one of the action buttons. Secondary options are selectable by holding the action button down for 2 seconds, or by pressing a Mode button followed by an action button. Roboboa also has a Lighting Mode button on his head, which converts him into an area light After 1 hour, Roboboa will revert from Lighting Mode to Aware mode. In Aware Mode, Roboboa remains in place but will track movement and emit various sounds.
Tail/Head:Reset:Strafe action button: Tail/Head toggles the 8-way directional pad to control either the head end or tail end of the Roboboa. Reset will clear all alarms, programs, and volume settings, and return Roboboa to the default position. Strafe sends IR command signals that are recognized by Robopet, Roboquad, and other Roboboas.
Track:Scan:Lazer action button: In Track mode (as in Aware mode), Roboboa remains in place but will turn his light on and track nearby objects that are detected by IR. In Scan mode, Roboboa moves his head from left to right until an object is detected. Lazer sends IR command signals that are recognized by Roboreptile and Roboraptor.
Explore:Sleep:Cannon action button: In Explore mode, Roboboa will wander in search of objects. Sleep causes Roboboa to curl up and suspend; programs and alarms are remembered, and alarm events will cause Roboboa to wake up. If no event occur within 24 hours of entering Sleep mode, Roboboa will enter Shutdown mode. Cannon sends IR command signals that are recognized by Robosapien and Robosapien V2.
Alarm:Daily:Test action button: Selects one of three alarm modes. Pressing the Alarm button multiple times will set Roboboa to wake up and play an alarm that many hours in the future, i.e. two presses sets the Alarm for 2 hours. The maximum setting is 16 hours. Five seconds after the last press of Alarm, Roboboa will enter Sleep mode until the alarm time elapses. After setting an Alarm, it can be flagged as a daily recurring Alarm by holding the Alarm button for 2 seconds to activate Daily alarm mode. Test will demonstrate Roboboa's alarm sounds, lights and actions.
Guard:Sentry:Patrol action button: Guard mode causes Roboboa to scan for objects within a range of several feet. Guard mode times out after 2 hours and Roboboa enters Aware mode. Sentry mode causes Roboboa to spin while scanning. If an object is detected, Roboboa will flash and then spin the opposite direction. Sentry mode times out after 20 minutes, followed by Aware mode. Patrol mode causes Roboboa to move randomly. After detecting an object, Roboboa will flash and then move in a new direction. Patrol mode times out after 10 minutes, followed by Aware mode.
Demo:Party:Volume action button: Demo causes Roboboa to show his movement, sound and light capabilities. Party causes Roboboa to act as a disco light. Volume cycles through preset options of Loud, Medium, Soft and Off. Volume setting is lost after Reset.
Execute:Program:Back action button: Execute will start a stored program of up to 40 commands. Program mode allows storing of commands, while Back removes the last command entered. The program is stored and played back by pressing the Execute button again.
Sleep mode: If Roboboa is not disturbed for 2 hours, he will curl up and enter sleep mode. If no alarms are set, Roboboa will enter Shutdown after 24 hours in Sleep mode.
Programming
Roboboa can be 'programmed' by entering commands with the remote; up to 40 commands can be recorded and played back in sequence. Two conditional steps can pause the playback until either the light level changes, or an object passes in front of the IR sensor. Playback resumes after the event.

So, the house has been re-listed. I WILL get that guy at National City fired. If it weren't for him, we would have the house by now. So, here we are, still living with the 2 people who hate each other and their 2 year old who can't talk yet, and the creepy gross guy who lives in the attic and has loud horrible band practice periodically. yay. They have food stamps and Wic, and tell us not to worry about food, they will buy it, and sometimes cook it for us. Yea, when they come back from "grocery shopping", they have chips, milk, ice cream, sometimes they will buy meet, refried beans, and popsicles. ?! >:0 Are you kidding me?! Thats like, the other day, the poor kid had kix and cheetos all day until his father came home with pizza. We are trying to figure out how the father can get custody of the kid. She is an unfit mother. I take that back, she is an unfit human being. She has some kind of bipolar disorder, not diagnosed. We came home today, we spent last night at his parents, this being the first day in months that we weren't home and she immediately goes, "If your alarm clock goes off again when you aren't here, it's going out the window." WTF? What a friggin' bitch! First of all, it wasn't set until 7:30, they are all up by then, second of all, it will shut itself off after a few min. So, I can't remember if I told you guys about this, but she has us sleeping on a bunk bed, that isn't safe, so Steve took the top mattress off and is on the floor. We don't have a closet, or dresser, so we use the top bunk which is just a piece of plywood to put our clothes on. In the middle of the night, it gave way and fell on me while I was sleeping. I have two scars on my arms from it. She goes, Oh well, you'll live. She wanted her child to sleep on the bunk beds. She is insane! If we don't get this house in 30 days from tomorrow, I might kill her. do they let you mysay in prison? I can't take it anymore.

(tonight, after finishing dinner, approximately 8:30 pm)
Emily: Wow, I don't know what it is about Mondays, especially since today was a really good day, but I'm exhausted right now.
Parents:  Oh, everyone's tired on a Monday.  Why don't you go to bed?
Emily:  It's 8:30.  Also, I still have A TON of work to do.
Parents: Okay, then take a nap.
Emily:  Yeah, maybe I could nap for an hour or so.  But you guys NEED to make sure I get up after an hour, because I really have a ton of work to do.
Parents:  You got it
Emily:  Okay, great.  See you at 9:30.

*What time did I get up?

12:40.   On my own.









So now....do I stay up 'til 3 to make up for the work I didn't get done because they didn't make sure I got up?  I'm actually pretty pissed right now.  Part of me is saying, 'You're 23, deal with it', and the other part of me is saying, 'you're 58 and 60  years old, you should be responsible at this point and/or NOT agree to do someone a favor like this when you know that the other person is SERIOUS about having a lot of work to do and wasn't GOING to nap until you suggested it and SWORE no matter what you'd pull me out of bed at 9:30'.

Ugh, I guess it's not so bad.  It's not like I have to teach anything I was going to plan tonight to a classroom of high-needs kids tomorrow.  OH NO WAIT, that was exactly what I have to do.  Nothing important or anything.           


Happy 300th post to you, too.

I had another one of those fucked up dreams that could be a movie. 

It caused me to get up when my alarm went off, rather than shutting it off and sleeping for another hour.

I hope this isn't a portent of things to come today - I've got a short week and plan on getting done with it soon.

4 alarm clocks strategically placed throughout my room. one backs up the other, and the other backs up that one. after a night of Corona, and crazy shots, these clocks are an absolute necessity. it's quite difficult to wake on your own with only 3 hours of sleep under your belt. these clocks ensure that i wake only to rub my bloodshot eyes, and ponder this question....."why did i drink so much"??????
