Finally, a real update. Yeah, I know.
The season premiers of CSI, :Miami, and :New York were all splendid. I'm such an addict of that show. And now I have an extra hour of the dead body goodness each week. Joy!
I played racquetball last night with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jrug. This was our first contest in about a year or so. I didn't embarrass myself too terribly. 9-15, 6-15, 16-14. My right arm is threatening to fall off later today due to the game, but that was expected. It was nice seeing how good throwing has been for my racquetball game. How so? Stronger arms. Go me. *grin*
One week from today a large chunk of my family will be descending upon Madison. This means I have a week to get my apartment into a condition that won't result in Mom tsk-ing me. I'd really like to avoid that. So, cleaning will be a priority next week. I need to figure out how to make room for the furniture they're bringing me, too. Stepdad wants to get rid of an old kitchen table and cabinet, so I'll get a real table instead of the folding one. Yay!
Work continues to be frustrating. I don't know why nothing wants to work anymore. I was doing so well and now I've hit that brick wall of failure again. I understand that science runs in cycles (including the TCA cycle,bexdragon), but I'm ready to get useful data again.
I stopped by Bruno's the other afternoon to pick up some of the good crack. I have this cookie recipe, you see...chocolate peanut butter cookies with chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, and p.b. cups. They're serious crack. Yum.
Studio is still going well, at least. I've finished a wedding gift for a friend. I tried to make matching mugs. They look...similar. I don't so much have the control to make anything identical. It's enough for me that I'm consistent. Speaking of which, I'm going to have to figure out how to carve claws. Hm, sculpture not being my strong point, this could get entertaining...
I've had about 60% more coffee this morning than I usually do. I'm pretty hyper. Group meeting this afternoon's gonna be fun. We're meeting to discuss what data we can send as "supplementary" for our NIH grant. It gets reviewed on Oct 22, we have until next Friday to send more data. *crosses fingers* We really need this funding.
Ok, enough randomness. Meeting, lunch, feed cells, studio, post office-type place, interstate. I've got a spiffy afternoon ahead of me. It's time I got to it!
