Spent the weekend in Nashville with some friends from college. He plays the bars downtown there so i spent a couple nights sitting around listening to some damn good country music and drinking Shiner Bock. Then playing with their son during the day, whose 7 months so we get along really well.

Pretty good time.

[Slow Ben]

The gf just got back from London. Toblerone and a Drifter bar baby!!!!

[Giles]

[Satan]

Did she ever sell him in the first place?

[Tiste Simeon]

Congrats Wolf. I have lots of good beer in the fridge and lots of meat to eat.

I'm going to Panama for a week. And the Van Halen song will not stop playing in my head.

Bacon with reggae reggae sauce. Epicness defined.

I just spotted a massive error in the paper I'm writing. It's not in the data but in the language. My background is in microbial genetics rather than humans. In microbes it is standard procedure to call populations with unusual gene sequences "mutants". I'm writing about human gene sequences and from a geeks perspective, it reads like I'm studying the X-Men! I imagine it's not exactly ethical to suggest a load of patients are mutants!!! Re-write!

[caladanbrood]

But maybe they are!!







I finally ordered Crack'd Pot Trail. Woo

@ Mezla, I reckon it sounds more like you are a Nazi Eugenecist if you leave that in, mind you if you could engineer yourself a Hugh Jackman/Wolverine I'm sure you'd be much feted, regardless of the ethics.

@Simeon, that was total fail, did not translate to that format at all.

Anyway, possibly something I shouldn't be happy about but, by god, it's making me laugh. The Uni Library is on 24 hour opening for exams as usual for this time of year and for some reason as part of the refurb, they've included a load of bean bags, which when I get into the grad centre are litered with inert students who have been up all night studying. Also there are loads of them in tears, being consoled by friends or on the phones crying. Christ, if you end up in tears on the phone about an exam then maybe you should find something else to do, have some god damned confidence in your own ability, it's only undergrad.

Its both good and horrifying to know that that kind of idiocy crossed the ocean. One librarian at hopkins would walk up behind anyone doing that and take a reeeeeallly long gargly draw on his slurpie-ish drink. Used to make them jump like babies. Good times...



I am happy because I slept less than 11 hours for the first day in a very long time.

[Mezla PigDog]

I have an interview next Friday for that research post at Oxford Uni! I'm really chuffed but also SHITTING MY PANTS!!!

[caladanbrood]

That's alright then Mezla, you can take along samples  










Coog - aye, it's "only" undergrad, but you only get that perspective when you've got past it yourself. Like, when you do them, A-levels are the most important exams of your life... and GCSEs, for that matter. Crying is rather pathetic though, since if you do the work during the rest of the term, there shouldn't really be problems.

[Slow Ben]

Gf's on her way to spend the weekend here. I'm getting sooo lucky tonight.




Because she makes the best cheesy potatoes ever you see.

[Illuyankas]

She sprinkles mozzarella on your spuds? Kinky.

[Slow Ben]

Mozzarellas for sissies. Sharp cheddar baby!
