After a long (too bloody long) time geeking around with perl, preparing posters and talks, and doing some hardcore microarray data mangling, I went into the lab this morning and filled my ice bucket. I got out my cut vectors and inserts and found the water and ligase buffer. It's all on ice, thawing, so for the first time in about six weeks I'm going to do a real experiment (keeping cells alive doesn't count).
It feels good. I'm all set. I'm ready, and now I'm going...
to have a cup of coffee. Yeah.

Oh, god. Does that mean you've already prepared your talk for England at the end of the month? I'll have to kill you if so. I'm drowning, here.

oh heck, no.
I thought I'd just wing that. Seems to be working for the rest of my life.

I'm relieved. How did your ligation come out? Do your miniprep today?
