Beach Time!

After a crazy week, I'm headed to Myrtle Beach to meet up with my family first thing in the morning. I can't wait!! They have been there since Sunday, but with this new job I wasn't willing to disappear for an entire week and burn 5 days of vacation. Things have officially gone from 0 to 60 at work...I'm actually happy about that one...however, my boss (like most PIs) have no concept of "science time" anymore. He asked for data today at lab meeting detailing the effects of two proteins on our system. I just started cloning them a week and a half ago...hmmm...well, had to inform him that he's just gonna have to keep his panties on for awhile. I'm off to bed so that I can get up bright and early in the morning and get there in time for someone to cook me some breakfast! :) I'll be quiet on the blog for a few days...but I'll catch up when I get back.

On a more solemn note, our old grad school friend Hoj (he's the beginning of many of my old stories at Wake...in case you don't know him but the name sounds familiar) lost his Mom Geraldine today to a long battle with cancer. Hoj, you're in our thoughts and prayers!
