are you kidding. we ALL slack. actually in my school we all got design gigs going on the side and lately for me THAT work is much more tantilising and I really wanna get back to it...

and the thing tomorrow is going to be soooo boring, no one will pay attention to my presentation unless i don't do the work, which sucks cuz its kinda pointless. one of those semi-boorocratic days. ugh.

OK, so this must be officially a dating scene/meatmarket because some website called www.love-dna.com has deemed this discussion worth linking to. Please tally your scores.

Well there was a time when I had a one nighter and woke up with a bad hicky.. very visible, on my neck !!!

I had to borrow my friend's foundation ( one of them make-up things) to cover it up... but not before the rest of the office noticed it and were soon hunting for details !!

ah well .... the mark stayed on for a week or so !!!

Hot damn. I met a 1st year Columbia Student on the L train this ayem who was reading Delirious NY... She was a cute blonde with big perty eyes and I didn't ask for her name or number. Kicking myself now...

She said she's looked through Archinect before, maybe we'll "chinect" through archinect.

There aren't many cute architecture chicks in Bushwick - it'd be nice to know one.

So I tried the "I'm an architect" thing at a bar last weekend, girls night out, so lots of opportunity. I might have had a little less than the required finesse thanks to a few run and cokes... here's how it went.

"You're too young to be an architect." Smiles, walks away. Musta thought I was a compulsive liar.

"Oh, yeh? And who's your friend over there?" Points to friend next to me. I answer, "She's a stay at home mom." "Oh YEAH???" (sounding interested).

Another - pulls a brochure out of his pocket and shows me the house he's going to buy. Just moved here from the caribbean. From the photo I could tell that the roof pitch (shingles) was about a 1:2 and told him it was too low for snow. He ripped the brochure out of my hands and walked away.

I can't play the architect card right. Oh well.

What kind of bar was this?

I once was talking to a girl at a bar and when she asked what I did - I told her, "i'm an architect" - she replied with "oh so you're not smart enough to be an engineer and not creative enough to be an artist" - when I asked her what she did, she promptly responded "I'm an artist". To which I replied - "so you're not smart enough to have a real career and you're not creative enough to have a better answer than that"...

Turns out she "paints" and her parents pay for her to live in the E Village.

Good answer, JP.

It was an older, dorkier crowd (not my pick of bars), but lots of dancing, picking people up type of place. I was with 3 other girls, we were loud and drawing some attention as a group. Also note: I had quite a buzz going, if I were talking to me, I'd walk away too, I don't know that I was standing up straight.

But while I'm on a role, once I told a guy I was an architect, he looked me up and down and matter of factly responded, "No, you're not."
He was a contractor...

Guys who want to impress a chick with their infinite wealth. Yes, it works with some girls...

I think he might have just been at the realtors before he came to the bar, it was folded up in his pocket, was very excited about it. I killed that. It wasn't an impressive house, just a normal 80's suburban thing.

JohnP - i read your post and got 'big party eyes' and just pictured a coked-out kate moss, trying to focus on words.

anyway i hope she's out there for you - for what it's worthi think it's a hard sell on a subway; the creep factor is high for everybody in an early morning commute. you'd have to shine charisma, beaming out your ass

sheetrock,

I heard some guy call in a radio show telling the host that he's having a hard time getting dates in L.A....the caller just recently moved from NY and, according to the host, he couldn't get dates because the caller kept referring to NY as "back home" or "back there" and kept referring to L.A. as "out here" in conversations...was that you?

i think you are past the small arms tactics. you need the heavy artillery:
