Expect the Worst Brain
One of my partners started looking for a job closer to me. After months of wistful "it would be nice if we were closer" texts, and my own internal monologue of, "don't even think about it, it's not even in the realm of possibility and your imagination will be the end of you" - he got an interview from the first two jobs he applied to ( Read more... ) -
Justify
You know how they say "Reason, Season, Lifetime"? When it comes to relationships- some people are just in your life for a reason.. Maybe help you grow in some way, or are there at a hard point in time when you need them.. Some people are just in your life for a season, it's good, enjoy it for what it was, and that's it.

WHY ARE YOU LIKE THIS???
**SIIIIIIGGGGHHHHH**
I'm having a day.
I spent 6 hours prepping DNA for sequencing, straight, and then came home to...
Wtf is all over the floor. Why is the pantry open. What is that white stuff- was Halle scratching at the door again? Was it raining or something? Why the fuck is the gate pulled down? WHAT HAPPENED HERE??

Yet you always wanna play again
Again and again..."

I feel the shadows hanging over
They're waiting to come closer
To come and take me away
And I can feel my heart skip
Everytime that I slip

Venting (work-related)
I just want to vent about the job I'm leaving behind.- First, I'm not ungrateful for the opportunity. It was a pretty good right out the gate job to jump into after my Master's. It got me immediately out of South Florida, which I had my own reasons for wanting to skip town after 3 hard years of post-graduate education in a place with too many ( Read more... )

The Salamanders
Sometime in the last two weeks, though I can't remember exactly when, I had a rather jarring and disturbing dream that involved two salamanders in an aquarium.
