Today I was notified that Ting and I were In Trouble.
This is because we are forgetful and sloppy graduate students, and neglected to clean the mouse hairs off the microscope and the shaver.
We were also notified that our action was the first of a new category of offense - the Food Offense. Actions sufficiently grave to be considered a Food Offense mean that whoever committed the offense has to feed the lab with a delicious food item. (Dr. D____ M_______ and Dr. B____ D_____ spontaneously invented the Food Offense category when they saw the mess we had left.) Insufficient deliciousness in a proffered food item is, in itself, a second Food Offense.
I am making chocolate bourbon pecan pie. I hope it is delicious enough to atone for my sins.
