Lab 101: Do not drop a test tube rack containing 32 cultures of different organisms. Seriously, not a good idea. Clench onto the rack with all the focus and strength that you can muster. Do not turn your head to stare at the eye candy walking further down the hall. Look straight ahead so that you can see the giant rack of media that is right in front of you. If accidental droppage does occur, be aware that you will not only have to talk to the dreaded safety officer, but you will also spend more time than you wanted on writing down the names of the 32 organisms on a spill record form and coming up with reasons on how the accident could have been prevented in the first place.

And now you know.

Today was an interesting day at work. We have some construction going on next to our lab (big expansion project) and the construction crew supposedly hit our main water line causing a big leak. The water was then shut off in the whole lab. It was only 1pm and we were told that we all could leave. I promptly found my awesome friend Ashley and invited myself to her house to play Guitar Hero World Tour. Have you seen the commercial for it? It's awesome. Check this out:

I totally unleash my inner rock star. You don't even know.

Kobe, Tony Hawk, and Phelps in their underwear and wearing pink? Awesome. Not a big fan of A-Rod though. You know why. Stupid Yankee. I actually read Tony Hawk's biography last year and it was surprisingly good. It's called Tony Hawk Occupation: Pro Skater. He has this amazing never quit attitude. He will never give up. That just might be the quality that I admire most in someone.

Anyhoodle, I think that I should never own a gaming system that supports Guitar Hero or Rock Band or anything like that. I would waste unimaginable amounts of time playing it. It is so blasted addicting!

Ashley is my PIC - Partner In Crime. We are two little peas in a pod. She always is game to accompany me in my tomfoolery. A few weeks ago the roof hatch on the east side of the lab was open to air out some fumes due to the remodeling of some offices. I grabbed Ashley and told her that we were going on a secret field trip. And she came, no questions asked! It was really fun to see everything from up there. I got some good pictures of the construction. Wanna see them? I thought so.

A couple of weeks ago, Ashley and I grabbed some hamburgers at Five Guys Burgers and Fries and then went to the Nickelcade and played video games for 2 and a half hours. That's what we do. We felt like a couple of 16 year old boys. We are total nerds together. Friends like that are few and far between.
