we finished our drawing crit and then spent the rest of day doing one last figure drawing session. i think everyone in the class really came a long way in six weeks. i definitely did.

because i have no more money on my meal plan i decided to cook my own dinner tonight. i had some spaghetti in my closet and went and got some bread and olive oil and spices from the met. and so i started cooking the spaghetti and when it was done went to pick up the pot which was very poorly designed and the handles were burning hot, so i dropped it, and water sloshed out all over my hand.

ouch. so i ran it under cold water, and went to health services hoping (but not really expecting) that they could give me some tylenol with codeine or something, but no, just some ice. and some plain tylenol.

i ate my spaghetti (as best i could with my left hand). and then figured i had to at least go down to the 3d studio. our chairs are s'posed to be done for tomorrow. i talked to ken and he said get as much done as you can, and i said i'd have something to sit on, but didn't know if it would have back and arm rests.

so i went back up to my room, and collected my things. and got my bowl of ice water. and headed back down to the studio. nikki tagged along wanting to help. and i really appreciated that, but i was in tons of pain and really kinda bitchy.

at one point she left to get some more ice for me, and i decided that i had to work through the pain, and actually keeping my hand moving seemed to help. i didn't have the presence of mind to concentrate on anything too challenging, but i got four base modules finished.
