magicbeans. nothing if not awkward.

i didn't have to take today's structures exam (my average of the first two was over 100, and he was going to drop the lowest of the three) but i did anyway. i actually enjoy the math part of architecture. i can't imagine doing it for a living, but a little bit here and there.

afterwards i spent about five hours in studio drawing elevations to get the windows and main entrance of my building figured out. once again it seems i've got a fairly traditionally "modern" looking building. but it's on the inside that the interesting stuff is going on.

thought it was about six when i left for dinner but it was really only a little after five. garth had said he'd be home early for dinner though, so i figured it was okay. i could get back to studio early too.

of course garth wasn't there when i got home. about 615 he calls to say that he just got out of crit. he's with chris.k and they'll probably be home in about an hour, will i still be there. maybe, i say. i watched the simpsons then started cooking dinner. all there was food for was curry or soup and figured that if i wanted a curry the way i like it i should cook it myself. and also it would be done about when they got home, we could eat, and then i could head right back out to studio.

they got home about eight. and although they didn't say anything about it, it seemed as if they had eaten in the met. (confirmed later by the grapefruit juice that they had left for me in studio.) chris.k ate a little bit, maybe because he was still hungry, maybe because he felt bad that i had cooked and then waited for them before eating.

and eventually back to studio.

had a conversation with sarah.m about our respective inabilities in communicating what we're actually thinking/feeling. she apologized about the last few weeks, but i still feel partly complicit. and once i start opening up, i like to keep talking, so after heading back to my desk to work i talked with stef about my recent moments of life feeling unreal and then upstairs and talked with molly about movies for a bit.
