I didn't realise it was a Friday! if i had known, i'd have looked forward to today. you know, you never have work when you're feeling alright. but when you have 2 agar gels to run which will take you the next 6 hrs, you suffer from crippling gastric pains that are capable of making you foam in the mouth with every additional step you take. ok maybe not. but you get the idea that i wish i stayed in bed. but by some miracle, it suddenly went down by quite abit. just like that. it would normally last the whole day so i conclude someone must have been praying for me. thank you. anyhoos, we were talking over lunch yesterday about how we should accidentally spill liquified agar into the centrifuge, jamming up the whole thing before we leave. well. We Were Kidding. i was boiling my agar powder in the solution in the microwave this morning and walked away to return something. when i got back, the solution had already boiled out of the bottle (it doesn't usually happen!) and eerr flooded the whole microwave. by the time i finished cleaning up, i'd already scrapped a whole layer of solidified agar off the bottom of the microwave. no one saw me. Thank God. It's Friday!
