Sacrifices

Working from home today to crank out a metric fuckton of mega-excellent grant applications with minimal distractions. Just discovered that there are no tea bags in the house as I took the entire stash into work. Suffering through a vat of hot chocolate instead.

Sigh.

The sacrifices I make for science.

  4. Arlenna is right. It is all about the coffee. Which, by the way, goes great with chocolate.

  5. That does suck.

    BUT next Wednesday I will miss AT LEAST half of England's final group-stage world cup game due to a Very Important Meeting with Very Important Collaborators that I have absolutely no chance of getting out of. (I've booked a vacation day for Friday's game, but I know better than to even ask about missing this meeting).

    This is even worse than not having tea.

  7. I will have my iPhone AND laptop, but we can't stream audio or video over the institute's WiFi. I'll be checking the BBC site for text updates as often as I can, but seeing as I'm project manager for this collaboration I should probably at least pretend to pay attention!
