I am SOOO uber-excited! Helen is coming back in town, and soon others will follow...
I just got off the phone with her and boy does she have some crazy stories about her trip, and i can't wait to see the pics she took...also i will be having a special guest soon...by guest i mean that someone we all have fond memories of will soon be locating themselves in new orleans...i can't disclose any other information right now...but i know some people in DFW are going to be REALLY surprised when they hear about this person!! i'm really excited that they are going to be here....this person i mean...just wait and see!!
i'll tell you guys next week...
in other news...i've now been reduced to interior design....i mean interior finishes of our housing design. it's kind of cool but it's a little boring to me...hence my masters degree in architecture instead of interior design, but this girl in the studio blythe is like the interiors team leader and she gets so excited about color palettes and other such material ideas that it's been what is keeping me going...she has enough energy and excitement about the project that she could make a crack addict seem mellow...
tonight we are having a barbeque out at the site, and if it was anything like last time it's going to be GREAT food and interesting company, with a police cruiser driving by almost every thirty minutes making sure that this group of white kids aren't stirring up any trouble in the neighborhood....they actually have a third policeman that sits in the back seat with the door slightly ajar so that if they have to stop the guy in the back can just JUMP from the vehicle and onto the scene(if you know what i mean--i'm a poet and i you better beleive i know it baby).
the people in that neighborhood are REALLY nice though and super friendly. all the kids came out last time and were racing their bikes in the street, stopping only once and a while for a juice break. random neighbors would just stop by for a plate of food, a beer and some conversation...good times man, good times. of course no one in the neighborhood has seen our proposal drawings or models yet(and we start building it soon) so they may or may not be as friendly when they actually see our designs--just kidding, it looks pretty cool and we know that the NHS guys that we have been working with REALLY dig our proposal...gonna be GREAT if you ask me!!
well until next time.....
ps. i hereby dedicate this entry to my long lost roommate...thanks for coming back, i was starting to question my sanity!!!!
