Aqua is a very cool building to look at. I still wish the Spire would get built, but it looks like it won't progress past a hole in the ground.
And Kaylee, what the hell's goin' on in the engine room? Were there monkeys? Some terrifying space monkeys maybe got loose?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Here's my current first world problem -- I just found out that a hotel around the corner from my house apparently has an awesome roof top pool. But it's only open to the public on weekdays, and only if you pay $40. Or $20 after 3pm. Pfui. Now I'm going to scheme on how to sneak in, of course.... And/or get someone I know to stay there!

Here's an interesting photo gallery of Chicago high-rise balconies (both good and bad), including Aqua.

The Aqua is a beautiful building. It reminds me of Gaudi's work.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Oh msbelle, another hurdle down. Good luck on composing the letter.

That was great -- just enough of the language of architechtural criticism for me!

Netflix was recommending me Doctor Who: The Curse of Fenric.
I read it as Doctor Who: The Curse of Fanfic.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
So far I have been to the coffee shop , shopped for some plants , did a little work in the garden, and washed some dishes. Going to work is going to interfere with my productivity
