the one with the big picture

Well.... it seems the  "angry alderman" matter has been somewhat resolved. I wont get into, but only because of the fact that this is up for public viewing. Lets just say Im glad he's not representing the district that I live in.

The house is still moving along.... suprising.

So in the mean time i have been thinking about how I actually see myself as an architect.... and I while I sort of knew this about myself-- its seems to have come into perspective. I am, as Mr. Brooks described it, as "big picture person."  I like schematics, I like to know what is going on, but not know whats really going on. I dont like details... construction details, model details, color details, any sort of details. In fact... I hate them. I try to like them and make myself learn to do them... but I cant. And- so i have come to decide that that is ok... because it takes all kinds of people- big picture & small picture. I dont know how this will fly in the real world, but thats me.
