Lab lately
Bye jet leg and hello experiments. Back to the lab like I never left. Summer hasn't been summering in the States so I made the most of sitting on the balcony enjoying the sun for 1 day
But l'm not really outside this summer soooo catch me INSIDE
What a couple of weeks. I've been doing some new experiments and the air conditioning unit in the microscopy room leaked and flooded so the computer has been out of action for a whole week! I've also been chasing up a lot of orders that haven't arrived vet and l'm just sat here like pls
On a positive note, l've been getting good DNA yields
All I wanna do is sleep and eat cake. Is anyone else feeling fed up and overwhelmed atm?
