Took a pretty solid knee to the nose in grappling...

I once did a really sloppy roll in karate and kneed myself in the face. It was really unpleasant.

Oh no! At least in this case I had someone else to blame! I have punched myself while holding pads for other people and not bracing properly, though.

Ooh, what train are you on? How much longer?

It was just a normal Toronto-Montreal train (6 pm to 11 pm), but yesterday I didn’t prepare well for it at all and it felt like it was 5 weeks instead of 5 hours long

Grad student oversharing in public lab/school places is one of my rage triggers

It’s quickly becoming one of mine too! Especially when the oversharing comes with a side of whining/being mean about the department’s admin assistants - like?? Why? Would you do that??????

have you talked with the people who use the fridge? Why would someone take them?

I did, and no one noticed if their sleeves pushed the tubes off of the rack or anything.

It makes less than zero sense for someone to take them, so I’ve started second-guessing myself (did I accidentally throw them out with the pellet tubes when I was clearing the supes? I really don’t think so but it’s not impossible I guess), eventually just accepted that the tubes are gone, and blamed it on the building ghost.

An error, but not a baking one.

frizztastic replied to your post:DAMMIT.

Alton Browns recipe calls for baking powder, did you use baking soda?

D’oh. I meant baking powder but typed baking soda. That substitution would result in a hot mess.

Maybe I should just go to bed.

I have such an issue with restriction sites. Like, I have to reread sequences constantly and only realize the difference between GGATCC and GAATTC on the fourth or fifth reread.

Yeah, restriction sites are the wooooooooorst

You’d think that a four letter alphabet would make things easier, but clearly not!
