  - i’ve been really busy lately. experiments picking up, i guess since i terminate in this lab by the end of march. trying to update my CV and cover letter by the end of the second week in feb. i also need to organize my lab notebook and make sure it’s up to date. i’m pushing back things because i don’t know where my money will be coming from in april. it’s disconcerting.
  - tomorrow is my birthday. yay. everybody wants to celebrate, but they don’t know where to get vegan cake from, so i’ve been getting alot of, “why don’t i just give you the money and you bake the cake yourself?” who bakes their own birthday cake?
  - B called me earlier this morning, just after i had finished part one of my experiment today. “when is your birthday?” he asked. “tomorrow.” “you lie!” he retorted. wtf? i’m not a liar; i don’t know, i just can’t do it. and he knows this (and why is he calling me?!). i think he still likes to get a rise out of me.
  - last week, i got a rejection letter from one of the three schools that i replied to. you know it’s a rejection letter; it comes early and it’s paper thin… nothing good comes out of paper thin letters. what was funny was they actually used the word ‘reject’ in the letter. i don’t feel too bad about it, but every time i come home, i’ve been praying not to get another one.
  - went to the car show last week with T and aabs; we had alot of fun and i was pretty much acting a fool, taking pictures of myself in cars like i owned them. the last time i saw T was when he came over to the house to pick up a CD; he met the parents. mom likes him alot, but i tell her it’s complicated. i don’t know however, for me or for him. or maybe both.

  ok. back to work.

  peace.

Blah blah blah

Fish cakes

Alas a fish cake.

Yet more fish cakes

Guess what ... yeah ... fish cakes.

The end of the fish cakes
