woke around 3:30am, couldn't sleep. by 4:30, i got up, showered, made lunch, made tea, and left by 5:30. went to TBM, and spent the day mudding, patching the last few drywall spots, and working on the durock for behind the tiles in the spray-out booth. the durock is really hard to cut - you are supposed ot be able to score it and break it like drywall, but this doesn't work well in real life. it's heavy as fuck, too, so to heft one up near the ceiling and hold it in place while screwing it in is something which makes me happy that i'm as big as i am.
left around 5:30, went home to shower.
yann and sarah were coming by to get us, and we were going to dinner. they called, having arrived in evanston a bit early, so they came by, met seth, and we went to trattoria DOC on main street. yann and sarah got two pizzas while di and i each had a different risotto. dinner was good, more expensive than i would have liked in week where i'm trying to not spend money. well worth it, though.
after dinner, we came back to our house, made a fire, drank tea, listened to jazz records, and talked until almost midnight. they took off, and we went to bed.
