I am sitting in studio waiting for glue to dry, so I'm going to give you a quick update on me, Dear Reader. Today is the second to last day of my second summer semester, and oh man, has it been intense. When I was warned about the rigors of architecture school, no one over sold it. The ethos is: Done it once? Do it again. Then again. Then again. Ad Infinitum. And get them all done before 0900 tomorrow.

On the other hand, I like the design work I'm doing. The problems are super interesting, and, however much I bitch, I am a significantly better hand at all of it than I was at the beginning of the summer. So someone's got something right.

In other design related news, I was given an original Eames Chair when I moved into my apartment. If you don't know, Dear Reader, the Eames Chair and Ottoman (designed by Ray and Charles Eames in 1956) is the classic piece of modernist furniture. Its furniture so awesome it's in art museums. Like MoMA and AIC. Serious business. It is also probably the most comfortable thing I have ever parked my ass in. The dilema is this: It's an expensive piece to start with and also a collectors item. I live in what is basically a college apartment, where shit doesn't always get cleaned and people hang out in altered states.

But its so comfortable.



That's all I've got for now, Dear Reader, I hope all is well with you.
