So much for free time, I've spent all of it (and more) in lab. I haven't eaten lunch since this weekend, haven't had time to do homework, haven't had time to see my friends. I need to get this project finished this week so I can write a ten-page paper by Saturday noon. By 19:00 tonight, I will know if this run worked, or if my conclusion to the year's work will be something along the lines of "results were inconclusive." I will probably come back anyway next semester as a volunteer to help my partner finish and, knock on wood, get the stupid paper published.
As of now, 17:52, I have two Ochem lab reports to write, two Ochem prelabs to write, ten pages of reagent dilutions and top-secret buffer concoctions to hunt down and write up, eighteen gels to annotate, and goodness knows how many more pages of introduction, results, and discussion to write.
In other news, the weather today is absolutely disgusting and there is no chance whatsoever of having snow on Christmas.

Somehow me saying I have been really busy (too busy even to blog) playing croquet, meeting people for lunch, feeding and looking after the children and occasionally managing emails and phone calls seems inconsequential. Because it is inconsequential. I hope that you keep busy with the things that matter and become a world famous scientist (or tango dancer). Then when you reach retirement you can look back on a rich life and write inconsequential comments such as this.
