mini-update
Sorry I've been awol for the last couple weeks, it's been crazy-busy. This quarter 3 of my 4 classes are being taught by my faculty advisor, which means I can't be as lazy as I like anymore. :P One upside, though, is that I'm making progress on my research... finally got my thyroid hormone degradation/conversion model to fit last night (after 2 months of futzing with it), so yay. :)
Also... Been reading this awesome book on the rats of New York that my roommate gave me (thanks complainr!). Some random rat trivia for you-- rat teeth grow 5 inches/year, and a rat can exert 7000 lbs/square inch of pressure with its jaws! Dood. I'm glad my rats are nice. (well, 21's nice now that he's fixed ;) ) Anyhow, I'm enjoying discovering the history of New York from a rat perspective.
Well, I'm about to give a presentation for my seminar class, so off I go...
