Some days are just crap!
Like today for instance, the engineer who was suppose to come & work today through Thursday so he can fix stuff at work called around 10am to say he is delayed. He hopes to arrive sometime this afternoon/evening. This means that now he has to work tomorrow to Friday, meaning we can't start our experiment
on Friday like we had planned and wanted to do. Especially as my coworker is gone all next week in skiing and the week after that is the week before we leave for the Keystone meeting in Vancouver, Canada so we'll be busy getting posters and presentations ready for that, etc . . . UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Have I told you lately how much I dislike science?!?!?!?!?!!?

For those thinking the Patriots losing last night was bad might not want to
click here - WTF goes on in people's heads?!?!?!? The article says, "
Nicholas had not been getting along with his father, police said in a news release, but investigators offered no other details. There was no sign of a confrontation Friday at the house, police said." then they go on to say, "
John Browning, [the father]
a real estate lawyer, had worked in Baltimore County's oldest law firm for nearly 20 years. He was a scoutmaster and a church leader. Nicholas, who was tall and gangly, was working toward becoming an Eagle Scout, and had built a prayer garden at his church to meet one of the requirements. His high school was one of the best in the county." So strange how the family can look so fine from the outside, but apparently something was wrong on the inside - scarey if you ask me!

Haiku 1
I've decided to alternate between differences between the UK & US and some poetry. I'm not a poet by any means, but I had a dream about haiku poems the other night & since in my mind they can't be all that hard to make up (5, 7, 5) I'm gonna give them a go . . . .
clocks set back again
