don't call it a comeback

It's been Donkey's Ears since I last wrote something here, and I realized that I've had that bloody stileproject image sitting proudly atop the blog for months. Not terribly tasteful, but still, I think, funny. Its the look on their faces, and the fact that they all have matching underwear... you look at it and think, what kind of crazy shit is going to happen next after they took the picture?

anyway, to sum up my long absence: I had moved to ohio to get a job and hopefully set up residency. I hadn't gotten a job after a month and a half, and while I was searching I got a phone call from an old employer who was in desperate need of someone, due to their exponentially expanding workload. They're a Landscape Architecture firm, so it sorta fit what I was looking for, in that they were going to have me learn AutoCAD and various 3D render programs, all things that would be extremely useful to me later in my pursuit of a masters of Architecture degree. So I came back to baltimore and have been working at Floura Teeter Landscape Architects. Its been basically pretty good. I like my job and my coworkers (all two of them) and I've learned alot. I recently got into the masters programs I applied to, and I will be attending University of Cincinnati starting June. I'm going 'upstate' for four years, with only 3 month periods off for good behavior. should be great fun. I've been dating someone lately, and that's been going well, but I'm not sure what will happen once I go to grad school and sell my car (alas, my poor element!). such is life.

Anyhow, I await june with bated breath, and in the mean time fret over how to pay for it all. I am sure I will figure that out, however. The tuition is pretty expensive, but I also have to buy a 3,000 dollar laptop (its fucking sweet, trust me) and probably 1,000 dollars worth of software. so student loans, here I come! huzzah.

but beyond that, theres not much to report, I mean the last couple months have had periods of intense excitement, but mostly have been pretty mundane. I am loving not working construction, I am still struggling with the lack of stuff to do after the workday is over. I am looking forward to the nonstop work crush of school weirdly, although I'm sure I'll change my tune after a couple months of it.
