It doesn't fucking matter when I leave, I cannot seem to get to work before 9:30. I left fully half an hour before I usually do, with my usual departure usually getting me to work at 9:40. I got here between 9:25-9:30. I had fully intended to be here early to clean more of the lab before I had to leave for class. But the buses were stuffed and some ( Read more... )

Our lab/floor dedication--a.k.a. a "Thank you for paying for our space, rich doctor man!" party--is tomorrow. I've done zero science today. I've just been tidying and tucking every last goddamned thing I can into cabinets or drawers out of sight. I still think my boss is going to come in tomorrow (she's home today grant writing) and find a million ( Read more... )

It's been nothing but hustle and bustle here today. Our lab has literally doubled in size, and all the new people need separate things and need to train on different procedures, and, naturally, we have a fuse blown that delayed stuff and ARGH MEME TIME.

Man, I'm not even halfway through this meme!? And I'm still playing catch up.

Day 14 - Your favorite quote from any movie
Oh no. No no no no no no no! You cannot make me choose! I couldn't possibly! Instead, I choose to give a list of my favorite lines from the movies I've listed so far. That, alone, is enough of a challenge given some of the ( Read more... )

I'm never good at posting to LJ on the weekend. I got swept away with volunteering and classwork and far too much movie watching and video game playing. On the up side, I got a fairly well-argued paper written and I watched The Running Man and Robocop for the first time in far, far too long. I don't know if I've told this story a million times or ( Read more... )

One third of the way there!

Day 10 - Your favorite director
Uh...I don't generally notice direction. I mean, I notice it if it's bad, or particularly flashy, but even after all these years of watching movies and even after a few courses in schoool, I'm still really shaky on this "direction" stuff. I know directors whose movies I've generally liked-- ( Read more... )

Day 09 - A movie that you know practically the whole script of

Oh, like any of you are surprised. I was listening to my iPod on shuffle this morning, and Rob Dougan's "Clubbed to Death" came on just as I was forced to put my book away because of crowding on the bus. I totally fell into it in a way I hadn't in a while. Excellent soundtrack in general ( Read more... )
