ohhhh my. Archinet's funny drunk. I thought that Evangelical Bunny was back, because I saw a topic called "Bless This Topic."

Then I clicked in and it was just "Best Thesis Topic." Very dissapppointed.

Not only is this subway station located in my new home neighborhood in NYC, the "Cathedral" in Cathedral Parkway refer to the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, which happens to be my home church in NYC.

Kate Winslet will play me. I have been told that I look like her and I'm fine with this because she is bee-u-tee-ful and I love her.

tumbles, who will play you? architechno, I think in all reality I think that Taye Diggs should play you. Speaking of gorgeous.....

mdler I would agree that you bear a passing resemblance to Peter Saarsgard. This is consistent with the fact that we all saw his package in "Kinsey" and we come close to seeing your package regularly.

Hi everyone - just catching up on TC and miss you all. Steven, I especially miss you because GSA officially starts - we meet the students and parents - in 2.5 hours and I am NERVOUS!! You handled the worried parents with such grace last year, and you were so skilled at slowing down my hyper rambling chatter and telling the students the most basic aspect of what we were trying to teach them...I'm sure it will go fine but the energy will be very different. My co-teacher Jeff is fantastic, of course, and we will definitely have fun. (It's also 20 students this year, last year was 12, so I'm a bit owrried about the scale.)


AP thanks for the Ms. Chia updates. I also vote Taye Diggs for architechno too - he's hot. Brad Pitt can play me if I get to work intensively and personally with him on body language/facial gesture/attitude. And costumes - I get to dress him myself.

I'll have internet in my dorm room in two days, so I'll be able to check in on occasion.

We can have an eight year old boy play me.

He'll have my same hair and chest size.

puddles - People do occasionally tell me that I look like Hepburn, although we are different races so I'm not sure why. I more commonly get told that I look like Björk. So maybe we can be cast as each other.

I can live with Taye Diggs playing me. As long as he doesn't try that awful Jamaican accent he tried in how Stella got her Groove (back)...I'm still trying to recover my ears from that.

no macrame. All of those diff. camera angles and closeups were cool tho. Nels Cline reminds me of someone....Pat Metheny (sp?) maybe? He had some seriously funny faces. His hands look like they're about a foot long.

I'm so tired today. I have so much work to do, too. Have I mentioned that I started my countdown, much like LIG and rationalist already have? 28 days of work left, officially. More time yet until I leave but I plan to enjoy nearly all of that, so that's OK.

got a job offer!!!! Now I have the opportunity to make $500 more a year doing stuff that may be interesting and is probably worth putting in my portfolio...

I'm heading back to that firm this afternoon for a tour and to discuss the benefits...

yeah tk!

I almost died again this weekend. Got myself stuck in some high alpine tundra with no apparent way down. I bawled, hung out with some mountain goats, bahhh, and thought about how THEY would get down. Eventually decided that navigating the 80% slope boulder field with some vegation to grab onto was how the goats would do it. Rather than sliding down 300 feet on my ass over a steep snow field, possibly only to end up in a hidden lake. Next time I will take someone who actually knows what they are doing when I decide to hike a huge mountain. But it was fun! and the scenery was great!

speaking of big life changes...

Monday, June 18 - moderatly coated



when i arrived to the office this morning, Ms. Chia-turtle was sitting calmly by the the window, enjoying her view toward Brooklyn and the Bridge. She was happy to report that although she got a bit dry over the weekend, she was able to sprout a nice even coat of green. Prior to my arrival this morning, aforementioned shaman of the studio (the older guy that details everything) soothed her by poaring a cup of life juice (water) into her hole.

so, yes Strawbeary, today is a holiday...on the seventh day, the Chia-turtle rose from the barren clay to shine her heavenly light on all of lower manhattan. heretoforth this day, the 3rd Monday of June, shall be known as "Dia de los Tortuga de Luce."

A few people decided to show up for work this morning. No sign of either of the principals yet. No appointments on their calendars either... What slackers.

I thought maybe the holiday was Dia de los Margaritas in the Manana.

congrats tk! and Strawbeary....stop getting yourself into predicaments like that and making us worry! Where was Mr. Beary?

Steven, if you plan to grow a 'stache, please do it tastefully. Please consult the following chart:




Furthermore, I am happy to report that by helping out liberty bell next week, I believe I will be unable to travel for work as they wanted me to - yippee! Thanks lb!

Wow, glad it turned out ok Strawbeary!!!

And TK, was this the firm we talked about? Congratulations, I hope many eco-villages and/or vertical farms are in your future. It does sound like a great opportunity, esp. if they would hire a licensed 'scaper so that you could get your last year of credit in.

I am happy to report that despite the best efforts of one Crystal Light, I have managed over the past two months to lose the weight which I had gained in the previous year! Hopefully I can regress another six months or so by the time I move.

straw- I had a similar tk versus the mountain episode back in grad school. we were on a field trip in the to Hawk Mountain, PA and camping overnight. our cars were parked a mile down the road from the trail to the campsite and between them was the Appalachian Trail... well, mr. tk thought that the AT connected to where our camp was and decided to take it as a 'shortcut' back to camp... but alas, after about 30 minutes of hiking (i'm crazy) I realized that I wasn't where I wanted to be. yes it was pretty, but it was early evening at this point. so instead of turning back, I kept pressing on thinking that I would get back to the road quicker by not turning around... So just as the sun is setting, I get back to the top of Hawk Mountain at a different spot then where we'd been earlier (after an 8 mile detour) when we had climbed earlier that day via the main trail... well the ridge trail wasn't clearly blazed and not in high use (lots of cobwebs and branches strewn about), but there wasn't a choice at that point... I should add that I was carrying a gallon of water, some food, and a wind breaker... But the sign pointed me back to where I needed to be, but with the fading light, I started to worry and then started to holler...


Finally got back to the main trail in one piece, and met some nice folks with a pickup who drove me down to the camp site... my classmates were starting to freak (it was dark and I'd been gone for about 3 hours when I should have been back in 20 minutes). If I hadn't made it back down, one of my classmate's dog was trained in wilderness search and rescue, so I could have relied on olie finding me.

needless to say, I've avoided the AT since then.

which one is most tasteful, wk? and why don't those guys have noses?

top row, fourth from the left, and the second one in the third row would suggest different kinds of motorcycles. you know, cuz i want them to be complementary: you can't have a ducati mustache and ride a harley, or vice versa.

glad everyone's ok after mountain climbing and job searches.

i'm slightly injured this morning. dropped a pry bar on my foot last night and spent an hour or so researching the symptoms of tetanus. satisfied that i'm ok as far as tetanus goes, but it sure is tender. ouch!!!
