Oh cool, we're just not having new grants awarded again. Cool, cool, cool.
Drank my coffee outside this morning and it's gonna be over 80 this weekend. We're so back.

Grad school was some tough times.
That must be it, you heated up the wasabi too when you cooked your sushi.
Somebody's lunch in my building smells like burnt playdoh.

I don't know if anyone has heard about it, but there was some really big news last night. I watched Monty Python and the Holy Grail with my 12yo (13 in 2 days!) last night and I saw multiple belly laughs and he stayed to watch the whole thing!
