For my Survey of Digitization class, I found something I've been looking for for a long time...a site that has 3D imaging of greek pottery! It's called Wining, Dining, and Dying in Ancient Greece and is through the University of Colorado. They don't go quite as far with the VR Imaging as I'd like to go, but the technology is out there and people are using it. This makes me VERY happy!

classics, a community for people interested in classical languages, culture, etc.well...my night went very well. No crying and yet no bouncing off walls. just a sence that everything is right.
I met PurpleD (my new name for DV - since i didn't like DV anyway) at the Amherst bus stop and went to the lecture with him. It was a good lecture (well, the second half anyway) and I enjoyed myself. Then we went back to his place and hung out. Eventually I brought up the subject of polyamory and our relationship and everything. We had a LLLOOOO00000NNGG talk. I tried to explain how i felt about the whole thing and he explained his pov and how religion is important to him and stuff is to him. We also talked about his "deep dark past" which isn't really all that bad in my pov, but i won't discuss it here b/c it is private. Basically, the end of this discussion was that 1. we were going to be really good friends and 2. it was time to get food.
So, we were walking into the center of Amhest holding hands and he said something was hurt and i said something about kissing it better. Then he pulled me to him and gave me a quick kiss on the lips. My heart jumped and I freeked. I looked him square in the eyes and told him that he was NEVER EVER to do that again unless he wanted to be in a relationship with me, or at least date me. I think I scared him a little, but i was scared too.
We went to a chinese place for dinner. It was nice. I tried his squid. it was slimy. Over dinner I realized that while I like PurpleD a lot, there is no way I could EVER date him in more than a Lan sort of way. We just aren't interested in the same things. It just wouldn't work.
I was convinced more of this when I was hanging out in his room after dinner. I think that we are going to be good friends and very affectionate friends, but nothing more.
I am glad this evening turned out so well. I'm glad it was all resolved in a good way and I neither of us were hurt. I'm glad it's over and I am sure of PurpleD's and my relationship.
Now I just want to go to bed. I wish i was with Aerith. He is the best person in the world to cuddle with!!! I LOVE HIM!!!!!! :):):):) *Happy, glad the world is working out well Smile*

First: The Samhain ritual went amazingly well!!! There were a LOT of people there and I think they all got something out of it. I know that I did. When I was Justice, I WAS Justice. There wasn't enough cider at the feast. there never is :) The walk through NoHo was wonderful, but sad as I realized that this may just be the last Smith Samhain ritual that I am involved in. But walking back from the beep-boop crossroads in the front of the whole group singing my heart out was just wonderful. When we got back to Tyler, there was still a TON of energy left in the room. It made my whole body tingle!!!
Then my sister came to stay for the weekend!! She got to see my room and my cat and meet some of my friends at the game and stuff. It made me happy. Yes, cimmy, I am worried about you. I love you! We had a bunch of good heart to hearts.
Then Aerith's D&D game went really well. Slinky-boy couldn't make it, but everyone else was there. I am soclose to becoming a fifth level cleric. We killed the evil elven mage and got inducted into the elven nation. A very good game. I am having so much fun playing it. Even if Aerith is trying to screw us over twelve ways from sunday.
That night...well...lets just say that sometimes it IS good dating the DM *evil grin*
Sunday we watched Krull. Why, oh god, why??? Then Cimmy left and I got some work done while Aerith was at the gym.
This morning i have to go meet with the head of the Classics Department about the webpage and about classes for next semester. So far this is what I am thinking of taking: Latin - The Aenead, American Theatre and Drama, Interactive Web Design (2 credits), Horseback Riding 2, and History of Opera (pass/fail). Yup, that sounds good to me. a nice 15 credits for second semester senior year.

Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Oct. 6th, 2001 11:03 pmI went to the Met today. By myself. First I went to the Greek Art exibit. WOW! I LOVE greek art so much. There is something so beautiful about the forms of the art. It took me a while to find the somewhat raunchy stuff, but it was there. I love the way that museums always try to not say what is really happening on the pot.
I also went to the Arms and Armory exibit. I love the armor and the swords and all of that kind of stuff. But I did feel a little weird walking through the mediveal art section wearing my "Black Death Euopean Tour" tee shirt. I really missed Aerith. I wish that he could have been there to look at everything with me. He probably would have been bored with the greek art, but he would have liked the armor and swords and old guns and stuff.
I bought a book of ancient greece that has pictures of the ruins and then a layover to give you an idea of what it might have looked like. I almost bought an Ancient Wolrd cookbook, but then I remembered that I really don't have room in my backpack anyway.
I love the museum. I really would love to work there for a little while, espcially in the greek section. I got a postcard of a meanad. :)
I miss Aerith. I wish he was here. I guess he'll have to come with me some other time.
