Feb. 26th, 2005 07:33 pmWell, managed to stay at work for five hours w/ my contacts in w/out them burning/itching/blinding me:) Between the animals, chemicals, and dry air, work and contacts are not a good combo...but my little trigger spot behind my ear started hurting last nite and hasn't really stopped (although not as bad as it could be) so I had hoped that a few hours w/out glasses would help.....Not really. Guess it's mostly just strain in my neck muscles working on it or something I guess. That or it's staying cause I had milk today for the first time in ages. *shrugs* As long as it stays on the mildly annoying level, I can handle it.
Must do laundry tonite...discovered wearing sweatpants out side in febuary when there is more than 5 miles an hour of wind is a baaad idea. And I can't find my windbreaker pants anywhere. Probably have to break down and buy another pair the next time I go to delaware w/ brian (read sometime next week). Was almost desperate enough to do it on campus today, but it was either 100 dollars at ems or 60 dollars at the bookstore for the honor of having Penn on it...no thanks to either. Fortunately it warmed up rather than getting colder so it was too painful a walk home. Course I came home earlier than I would have just in case because of that.
Still have SOOO much work to do. Hopefully I'll get oh...I dunno at least half the presentation done tonite and finish things up tomorrow so I can start cramming info in my brain before I practice w/ brian on monday most likely. I'm tempted to try to do a shit load of experiments in between but I think I'll hold myself to doing the western since the previous blot didn't look great..and I need to figure out what to do about the emsa that I realize I forgot to write a key down to so I'm not positive which lane is which especially since I flubbed loading one set of samples. Siiigh. Oh well.
Must stay positive:) Get through those the next three days positively and spin the hell out of everything to survive those two hours and then I'm free and clear for at least a couple of months.
