Je suis Bob the Builder

In the last week, I've assembled two dressers and half a bed. I say "half" simply because I cannot complete the bed without another set of hands. I assure you that, soon, it will be a FULL bed. Regardless, I still feel accomplished. And, just so's you know, accomplishment feels SORE

I'd love to lend you a set of hands, but that could only be accomplished by me flying up there (and as much as I'd love to do that, my bank account would not love that) or severing my hands and mailing them to you (though cheaper than the plane trip option, it's not really beneficial ot either of us).

I'll fund the mac 'n cheese study, though. It is also one of the only foods that I enjoy when it's cold.

Hey, no worries about the hands thing. The bed has been built. The mattress has been ordered. Soon, for the first time since, oh, November, I will be regularly sleeping on a bed and, in particular, a bed I can call my own. So that should be fun.

As much as I appreciate your willingness to fund the mac and cheese study, I think it will take a great many such contributions in order to get to the bottom of this mystery. It takes a lot of money to make science, after all. Money, beakers, tubes, and big vats of liquid nitrogen from which objects of various shapes and descriptions will be removed using tongs.
