Take that!

I've spent the week all by my onesies at work, so to speak, as my coworker is on vacation in his homeland of Turkey.  While I can claim to have accomplished certain things (taking care of tissue culture and counting cells, getting genomic-based PCR to work to the point I'll be able to clone stuff next week), I am peeved enough by the various results I got yesterday that I am REALLY GLAD that I get to take today off to go watch people skate.  Ha!  So there!  Work, I shall deal with you next week.

There was ice skating, and it was cool!

We spent the day watching people skate at ISI Worlds.  The short version: We had a really excellent time and have decided this means we should go watch ice skating competitions more often.
( The slightly longer version )

Anyway.  We had a fantastic time and we're really glad we went.  Yay!
