friday's awesome power

its snowing and cold out. the high today here is 8 degrees - not counting windchill. and the roads are not good - i def was going slow and scared of skidding this morning.

but its friday :) i have a couple things i want to accomplish today - all of which are very doable and will be great set up for next week when i should start my weeks of repetative experiments to actually deal with all the blood i froze during october and november. and THAT in and of itself is really fun - because i'll be busy, but on my own schedule. soooo - if i want to take a friday off, i can just work sunday to thursday the week before without a problem :)

edgar gets back tonight - a little after 11. i'm going to pick him up from the airport. i don't know what his family and karlos thought of me, but esther really liked me. i got nicknamed "tall-y" esther is shorter than edgar, chuck is about his height - so i very much towered over everyone.

ok, i think i'm going to do some work. we are having a lab lunch party (sort of) for li, a girl that is leaving tomorrow for a new job. we're ordering a bunch of chinese food (her choice) and all eating together at noon. it should be interesting . . . but its something to look forward to :)
