Sigh *Post Date Edit*

It’s so exciting! I know it’s a work in progress and it’s just an exercise on centroidal axis, but it’s the first drawing that actually looks like something! I have to finish up detailing, welding marks, some dimensioning, parts lists etc. But you get the idea. I will post the final result come Monday (I plan on working on it on Sunday).

Mmm all should bask in its gloriousness.

I had to format the hard drive and I need to reinstall Autocad as the RC for WIN7 was up and I had to pay (ew) for the real deal. Of course you can’t just enter a serial number, you have to format the HD and reinstall.

We spoke last night after class and I’m very excited about tomorrow! I can’t help but feel awkward. I think I like this guy and I’m not sure why. Well I am sure why. But I can’t. But I can, but it’s too soon. WAY to soon, I can’t possibly get involved with someone so soon after a relationship of 5 years. Can I? Possibly, but not very sensible. Oh why is it so confusing? Of course it could all be solved so simply by him not being interested, which I suspect isn’t the case. BUT if he were smart, he’d say so and get it out of the way for my sake. Friends. Friends with benefits. I need to read my notes. No, no I’m not ready and that’s where this nagging feeling is coming from, but I know I have to try. What am I talking about… just go and have some fun and stop over analysing your feelings. You’re two people engaged in a… Sojourn? No, we are two urbane individuals on a peregrination in amiable concordance. Nothing more.
Yes that will do.

**Edit**

So we went on our date… amiable concordance if you wish. And it was good.
Oh who am I kidding it was great! OMG!
We met at one and walked over to the Maritime Museum to see the Mythical Creatures Exhibit and might I say worst.exhibit.ever. Seriously terrible! It consisted of half a dozen Xeroxed pieces of paper, shitty artwork and come crepe paper decorations. Fortunately there was an actual maritime museum that has decent exhibits.
It took about an hour to walk through and then it was all over.

We walked for a while and ended up at Circular Quay. As I’ve never been to Manly, we caught the ferry over to Manly and went to the beach. We also took a little bush trek to the local look out.

This was my favourite part, we found a nice spot and sat and watching the ocean for a couple hours. Slowly moving closer together, finding excuses to touch eachothers hand or brush away a a bit of stray hair… it really was nice.
Then it started raining. Yes cliché I know.

We made it back to the main Warf and with half an hour to spare sat ato Max Brenner and had the nicest Dutch hot chocolate… I’ve never had Max Brenner before but I am a total convert. It’s better than sex. Seriously.

Oh and Josh isn’t his real name. I can’t pronounce his real name, apparently he adopted Josh because we Australians simply can’t pronounce it properly – I did try several times, and yeah. Not so simple.

We parted company at the train station, I declined his invite back to his place.
Instead he is coming here tomorrow afternoon for homemade vegetarian pizza and movies.

yeah, just go and have fun. Don’t shut the door, but be sensible. He should realize the baggage you now come with. Maybe it matches his? “I’m looking for baggage that goes with mine.” – RENT (And, yes, you know you’re gay when…) haha.

amiable concordance… That’s soo hot!

March 12, 2010

Umm, so what is this drawing? There’s no reason you have to rush into a relationship. just take it as it comes and see where it goes.

March 12, 2010

RYN: Thank you. And no, it used to be this depressing black and bluish thing. I changed it a little while back.

March 12, 2010

Ryan is still around because he’s my best friend and life would be really easy if I could find that “spark” with him (again). I might be hoping in total vain. But he’s like the ideal person for me IF I could get past Greg enough to fall in love with him again.

March 12, 2010

I love reading about the new guy euphoria. 🙂

March 13, 2010

A near-perfect day.

March 13, 2010

March 13, 2010

I’m really hoping I’m not showing how much of an idiot I am in asking what exactly are the blueprints for? It just looks complicated to me. The date sounds like it was wonderful. RYN: I have no idea, but we’ll find out tonight. I have to make a couple Ninjas and some alien monkeys and he gets to help stuff. Hugs, John

March 13, 2010

RYN: It’s a Marine thing. Oh, and just so you know, your pictures REALLY make me want to go to Australia.

March 13, 2010

March 14, 2010

RYN: What do you mean?

March 15, 2010

🙂 sounds like it was a great time!

March 15, 2010

Awesome!

March 15, 2010

I really thought that was a real spider there until I finally pieced it with the Mythical Creatures Exhibit. Enjoy the pictures the scenery pleasant.

RYN:RMN: No offence taken. idk, for me there’s not really a conflict. I am part of a very liberal Lutheran congregation that is pretty much accepting of everybody, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Most of the conflict with sexuality and religion comes from people and groups who misinterpret passages from religious books out of context. Just something to keep in mind, y’know?

March 15, 2010

I can’t answer a question without generating a few more at the same time! haha…

March 16, 2010

I’M SO GLAD YOU HAVE MAX BRENNER IN AUSTRALIA!

March 16, 2010

Hey, great to see you back! 😀 I’m sorry I haven’t stopped by for a while but I appreciate all your lovely notes. That drawing is impressive and I’m glad your date was good. 😀 RYN – yeah, I think I’ve tried just about all the natural sleep aids, plus all the over-the-counter ones too.

March 16, 2010

did you draw that? very good. i can’t handle drawing like that i need to be creative and draw pictures of pretty ponies or something. ryn: no, he followed me, so i thought i’d use him for what hes worth: his big cock.

March 16, 2010

RYN: LOL!

March 17, 2010

yay!

March 20, 2010

Oh wow beautiful photos. 🙂

March 30, 2010

Are you builing a house? Your drawings look complicated but I’ve never been good at reading bluprints. I think your date with Josh sounded sweet; hope the next one is just as nice. Your pictures are beautiful btw.
