Placed order for new phone, phone number transfer not allowed. I'll send out the new phone number when I get it, one way or another. I also forgot to mention that while I was gone the mint came down with a sudden and severe onset of spider mites and I have not been able to rescue it in time, so now I have dead mint. Which is depressing since I've had this particular batch since Davis and the thing's practically invincible, or so I thought. Except obviously not. (Mortality is a nasty shock. Yes, even with plants.)
Have mac computer in lab that we want to install something on but the PI doesn't remember the password. We could get the department tech to override it, but meanwhile the rest of the lab and I are engaged in trying to guess the password based on the hint. It's amateur hacking as a side hobby, whenever a few of us have a few minutes between experiments.
On Thursday there was a sudden flood of cheerleaders (mostly jr. high, high school aged by appearance, of all different kinds of uniforms) and you can hear them coming a mile away. They went past the bookstore to the fields where presumably there is either some sort of cheer camp or competition going on. They are very thin. Were they always this unhealthy looking?
On Friday there was a sudden horde of marathon people, in purple and black uniforms, that ran past our lab. I dubbed them "the invasion of Fedex" (because of the uniforms), much to the amusement of my labmates. There was a person driving alongside, shouting something on a megaphone, but no one in lab could make out what he was saying.
And then the PI came out and we got distracted for a bit.
I've had "Brand New Day" (yes Lucy, the one from that DW video...have you been able to find an mp3 yet? Because my mp3 player doesn't play the video's format) stuck in my head for two days. It comes and goes, much like my state of sanity. (Oh right I should go and run more chores now. Later!)
