Well, the big news for today is that, on the way to work, I saw a bunch a baby ducks waiting behind a mommy duck to hop into the Engineering Sciences fountain while some band with a drum set was rocking out on the lawn in front of the building.

Sometimes, especially when the weather is nice, Madison is one of the dreamiest places to be.

We're nearing the end of the spring term, and all the undergrads are busy AND I have another set of lab reports to grade. Concurrently, I rented The Sims: Bustin' Out for the GC and have been horribly addicted for several days. Before I ran into a bug in the game and lost my car (in the game) I was a Gene Splicer (Mad Scientist Career Track) and I was living in a government compound. Awesome.

You know, the really great thing about grad school is that it's turning me into something different. Not different from "who I really am" but a more assertive me. I have good ideas. I have a short attention span but I'm not the only one here with THAT problem. I can do science! Hell Yeah!

P.S. I'm so excited for Alice who has finished her Thesis!
