Dream about the sun...
May. 17th, 2006 03:40 pm...and holy shit, the sun actually is out right now! I woke up and thought I was hallucinating. It's been raining for the past 3927521 years or so...or it just feels that way. It probably won't last-thunderstorms forcasted for this evening/night.
I have been living on Imodium for the past 8 days. Use your imaginations for what that's been like. I'm also dreaming about keeping food in my system for more than 2 hours. Maybe absorb some nutrients, get re-hydrated, and cure my ulcers and anemia, yeah, that would help.
I took some NMR spectra of my product the other day. Well, I am now wondering, what the hell is my product? It's really looking funky on the spectra, and behaving most abnormally. Now we're wondering if it didn't get purified enough-an apparently successful synthesis after 4 months was cause enough for joy.
My power in my apartment keeps going out. Turns out my neighbor is installing some fixture in his apartment, and just turned off my power without informing me. Ugh...MORON. At least he then asked when would be a good time for me to not have power? Since I'm going out of town on Friday, he'll do it then. Which is good. Because I really hate it when people decide to knock my power out to benefit themselves. Without having the foresight to ask me if its all right, or at least just give a courtesy call.
The job hunt goes on...April, the only person on campus who knows, offered to send me a few decent sources. Loves me cause I'm a liberal, hates the fact that I like cats. I couldn't believe that people are treating her like shit though. Apparently, there's a woman who works in another lab who has given her shit over her weight (she is maybe 20-30 pounds heavier than me), and keeps making insulting, derogatory comments to her. She's a really nice person, it's nobody's business what her weight or diet are, why are people so rude/stupid/alive?
I have to grade two sets of work for tomorrow's students, set up the lab, set up partners...I would like to thank the department for insuring that this will be a 10-hour job on Tuesday and Thursday...
