I’m on my way . . .
Wednesday, December 21st, 2005Well, nearly.
The moving company has been paid, flights booked and visa obtained. I’ve told the lab mangler where and what my stuff is. I’ve bequeathed special and sacred reagents to my distraught followers. I’ve inducted my very young apprentice into use of the new, shiny scanner and the DVD/CD burner, I’m burning my stuff to DVD and am about to return the Perl and C manuals.
The only thing that hasn’t gone to plan is those damn’ litholoops. I’ve got time on the X-ray set but they haven’t turned up, which is rather dischuffing. Oh hum. I’ll try again when I’m in my new lab. Which will be interesting because my old supervisor is working on something similar to what I’m going to be doing, and is looking to collaborate already.
I doubt I’ll be writing again this side of the Pacific Ocean (the ‘Specific’ Ocean as we used to call it) - one more day at work, then a week packing, a week at my parents, and then
FWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSH
Happy Christmas and a splendid 2006 to all our readers!
