Wooden heart

19 February, 2008

My babies! My poor, starved, over-crowded babies!

I got in this morning, went to Stores, saw the stack of autoclave bags and realized that in the heat of microarray analysis and genomic mining yesterday I'd forgotten to look after my cell culture.

They think I don't love them anymore. Sniff

This happens to me so often. My cat at home at least TELLS me when I forget to feed her, but the cells just sit there, quietly proliferating in the dark.

don't remind me... mine are sad and probably half loose from the bottom of the flask today... :( maybe some new media and gentle cuddeling will do the trick?!!?

About the Rat

Black Knight is interested in the interaction of science (as a day job and as a way of thinking) with his family, the wider community and literature. And tormenting students. Frequently polemical, sometimes serious, and hopefully always entertaining more
