Nothing to see here, really.

Today, I'm wearing sneakers for the first time in months. Last night, it was cold enough to require a blanket, which I couldn't get out because it was in the chest at the end of my bed, buried beneath crap. What's up with it already being cold? That's not supposed to happen in August ever.
*
I performed a successful silver staining on two 2D SDS-PAGE gels today. Very nerve-wracking, as I'd not done it before, but I did it. My feet ache from standing for four hours straight getting the things prepped and all the solutions made, but it's done!

I did laundry at the laundromat by the new apartment for the first time (i've been home so many times in the past two months, I was able to bring stuff with me until now). I overpaid because I ended up in the huge washers, and then I forgot to take chapstick out of a pocket (this isn't even the first, second, or third time I've done this, I can't believe it), so several shirts have spots all over them. Oh well, maybe I can take them home tomorrow and redo it when I go home to take the kittens to the vet. Point is, I did laundry up by the new apartment. Now it's officially home. Thanks be to
feiran for buying the wheeling cart; that made trucking laundry much easier.

Oh, and kittens! I've discovered
feiran, Liz and I are fantastic mommies together--we all can't wait till they're cats. Kittens are the cutest most heart-melting things ever, but cats are lazy, fat, adorable darlings that won't be crazy freakoids all the time. They are the most loving kitties ever, though. I can't move but they're underfoot and wanting to sit on my chest and rub faces and noses with me. Oscar bites and licks my chin--I think that's really affectionate, something they do to their mommies. I could cry with happiness: THERE ARE KITTENS WHAT LOVE ME. FINALLY!

Batman animated volume four continues to annoy the piss out of me. I realize that Bruce never really did the full-out costumes too much in Batman: the Animated Series that he did in the comics (except for in "Almost Got Him" in which he donned a full costume of an actual person), but really, by the time they switched the animation style it was like they gave up having him hide his face any more. He went to snoop on the Scarecrow...with a moustache. A moustache!!!!! Five exclamation points = my insanity over how stupid it is that no one recognized Bruce Wayne, the most famous face in Gotham, because he was wearing a false moustache.
Major props to one--AND ONLY ONE--bit though? He wrestled an alligator. And won. Not only won, won without using weapons. And killed the thing. Fuck yeeesssssss.
