Friday in Eight Points:
(Why eight? It's my favorite number.)
1. At 7:00AM, I was caught sleeping on one of the benches outside of lab, rather than setting up a PCR set.
2. At 8:03AM: "Hey everyone, guess what! The washingtonpost.com's political blog has possible VP picks up for all the main candidates, and I guessed all but one beforehand!" They weren't impressed.
3. "Dude, that's nothin'. I get back at my enemies by throwing leftover Chinese food in their yards!"
4. "Hey everyone, take a look! This piece of matzah looks just like Ohio!" I apparently said that as a Nobel laureate was passing by.
5. Five minutes into my first exam-prep meeting with my thesis advisor: "Can we take a quick break? I'm so stressed out that I'm about to pee my pants."
6. Fifteen minutes later: "Do you think it's bad if I told my graduate committee that I'd love to own a used bookstore today? Like, one of those bookstores where there are lots of cats running around?"
7. At 5:30PM, I walked into the men's restroom with an agarose gel. I don't know why.
8. Friday evening, to boyfriend (home after five awful days in Olympia): "What do you mean you're too tired to play Axis and Allies?!"
