It’s a running joke that any time there’s even a drizzle in Southern California, people freak out. Well, it’s doing a lot more than drizzling right now, so get ready for the live continuous team coverage. The wind and the pouring rain sound really scary, actually.
In other news:
I overslept this morning and missed a meeting with the professor whose lab I’m working in. The meeting was kind of urgent, because another group doing the same experiment may get the scoop on us if we don’t write this up. And now my prof is only free to meet a week from Monday. D’oh.
In my defense, he didn’t confirm a meeting time with me until 9 LAST NIGHT. And I didn’t check my email after about 8, when I went to hang out with a friend — also why I slept in. We watched a Canadian movie from 1993 called Zero Patience, a musical about Patient Zero of the AIDS epidemic. The movie was glorious. A nude bathouse dance number, stuffed and mounted animals coming to life, singing anuses, plenty of 80’s-music-video moments — I couldn’t have asked for more.
Then we watched the Top Model marathon.
Anyway, I planned to get a bunch of stuff done today, but I also brought my Game Boy Advance from home and have been playing Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap nonstop for the past 6 hours.
Maybe this weekend.
