So I got my own place. I'm moving in next Wednesday. It's cute. Not exactly spacious, but it's more than big enough for me and my six pieces of furniture. It has a bedroom, which is just right...not too big, not too small...and a living room about the same size, which is kind of small for a living room, but like i said, i don't have that much ( Read more... )

So I told my roomie we should see other apartments. I left out the bit about how she's a psycho. Specifically to avoid getting stabbed in the shower. You know...psycho...anyway...so if we can move to other apartments owned by the same management company, they won't penalize us and keep our deposit and shit. Which would be awesome, cause I really ( Read more... )

So yeah, as the title says, I am still crabby. Luckily this is the last day i have of being at work at 7am. i don't think i could do it one more day. next week, the manufacturing is going to be shut down, so i won't have to be in until 9am!!! you know what irks me? when my cube-mate starts off a sentence with "now i'm not racist, but.." and ( Read more... )

So this week, we are down by two in the lab, because john and bob both decided that this would be a good vacation week. which means more work for the rest of us. and it also means that sarah gets to come in at 7 every morning to help with the morning chores, (ie, calibrating pH meters, refilling water bottles, milking cows, etc.) this ( Read more... )

So work sucks when it's busy, and it's been busy as hell. I'm taking a break now, even though there's a shitload of tests for me to run, because if I don't take a break right now, I'll go mental. Or mental-er as the case may be. Speaking of mental patients, my roomie has decided she needs to marry a Jew. Because he will most likely be rich and ( Read more... )

So it's finally Friday. Why did this week seem so long? Oh, that's right, because I've been swamped at work. Because we got a ton and a half of raw materials this week. Because i have to do the sampling and testing on ALL of these raw materials before they can be used. Which leads to my coworker John's observation: How is the Purchasing ( Read more... )

I finally found soemthing suitable for my user picture!!!! check it out everyone! it's so awesome! Also, it's funny, because I'm a chemist! Hahahahaha! wow. i'm really tired and kind of loopy right now. is that a word? alright. I guess i should start working or something.

So we've just been doused with the remnants of hurricane Dennis. Not a particularly frightening name for a hurricane. And everytime I hear the weather guy say it, I can't help but think of Monty Python "You could have said Dennis...I didn't know you were called Dennis...Well you didn't bother to find out, did you?" And the next named tropical ( Read more... )

So I tried this 'drinking 8 glasses of water a day' thing the other day. Turns out I was bloated and miserable all night long, and my kidneys are probably still mad at me for making them do so much work. Chris insists that I just need to give my body time to adjust to it. I don't know that it will ever adjust, though. I think it's too used to ( Read more... )
