I know I’ve been lax about updating the journal, but I have to let you know that my last week was the worst I’ve had in years. Naïvely, I’d assumed that since I was older (and more responsible?), I wouldn’t ever have to spend a night working in the lab again.
I came home perhaps three nights last week. Perhaps.
As tired and spent as I am, I write this entry with a surprising feeling of accomplishment. During the course of the year, I’ve managed to learn (begin learning) something I’ve always wanted to, and was brave enough to give a talk on it too!
Perhaps normal-sounding entries will resume shortly. Perhaps.
Meh. Normal is overrated.
Some people seemed to enjoy it though.
