Don't panic? Crrraaapp

Ok, so my huge grant proposal has been making me very unhappy, because it's huge and it makes me all stressed out and scared and then I don't do any work on it and then I get even more stressed and want to start work on it even less. It's a vicious cycle that I had to work damn hard to break through, yesterday. So I got some work done, I'm feeling better about it, and I know I'm learning alot, yeah yeah yeah. It still sucks to have to do it.

On the bright side I went to the lab for my 3rd rotation on Friday, and the PI rules hardcore. She swears too, which I find fantastic. And I'm going to get to do some microscopy work--woot! So I'm excited for the next rotation. I still have to give a presentation on monday for my last lab, but then I'm free to move over to SMI building and get crackin'.

I'm still stressed, but I can live again after tuesday, when I won't have heaps of things due. Won't that be nice?

Dave met my friends on friday, which was most awesome too. I think they love him, but he won't believe me. That's ok, at least now they know he's not some figment of my imagination!

In honor of the great release of the extended edition of Two Towers, I'm including this site in my entry:

Lure of the Ring

WARNING: I'll be honest, this is basically artwork with depictions of the characters of LOTR in very homosexual situations, so don't click on it if that already disturbs you too much. It's awfully pretty, and seems so freakin' wrong I had to include it. Horrific! But I cannot look away!

Cheers!
