Progress is Fleeting

Summary of today:

Inconsequential Thought of the Day:

Sometimes a lot of work is necessary just to figure out that you aren't making any progress.

Purpose.

As Promised (Delirious Fever Addition)

W. did somehow get elected.

I suspect because he’s connected

So many a hanging Chad

Floridians who can’t add

50 percent of us were certainly dejected

 

In Iraq W. started a war

But he failed to look at the score

“Mission Accomplished” he said

Then his face turned all red

This wouldn’t have happened with Gore

 

But this man just wouldn’t go away

Eight years we watched him turn gray

His gaffes were legendary

He even beat John Forbes Kerry

January 20^th we will cease to obey

 

There once was a man named Bush,

Whose brain, it was basically mush

Back in the Lone Star State,

On his ranch he’ll vegetate

Oh the embarrassment that was George Bush.

*you can thank me later for all of that time you are going to spend at this site

Big surprise experiments not working

If I hear that liquid nitrogen tank vent one more time, I'm going to lose it (my hearing, that is)

Ghetto analytical balance utilizes clipboard for right-side door

Timer signal to evaluate failed samples

Woman available if you need help breaking anything

Grad student pretends all of those gas tanks she is changing used to blow up balloons for birthday parties

International nightmare of in-articulation to end tomorrow

Hell Freezes Over, Oh Wait...It's Just Minnesota....

It was -16F (-27C for you Metrics) this morning.  I just thought you should know.

I'm wearing two of EVERYTHING.

Walking (Home) In a Winter Wonderland

Snowshoeing pretty much just walking in the woods, except slower

Runner certainly not wearing reflective vest because it's attractive

26-year-old still unable to use lighter successfully

Keys lost right in front of face twice in one hour

Grad student teaching short course lab she should probably be attending

I don't know what that smell is, but it really needs to stop

Woman grateful for walking commute today

Frost-Bit Fat

Minnesotans picnic on 25 degree day

Ab "muscles" coming to terms with the fact that they aren't any more

Trader Joe's clementines really letting me down

Misplaced chap stick causes slight dismay

Chocolate craving left in-tact after chocolate-free lunch

Woman even getting bored with the Internet

"Oh."

Boyfriend:  You did something new with your hair.

Me:  I washed it!

Boyfriend:  Oh.

Little Victories

2009 has kicked off in a thrilling fashion...

Lesson learned the hard way:  toaster needs to be plugged in to toast bread

Airplane lands safely

D-bag going 60 in left lane in a 65

Headache threatens to end Facebook session

Grad student in need of new day planner to not use

Tomatillo salsa to be attempted

Forearm flashed to increase Vitamin D production

Grad student not going to graduate this year either
