yubsieIt has come to my attention that in light of this week's episode of HIMYM, we may have to reconsider River's assessment of Bill's duckness. Sometimes... I love the world. :p
Also, doing chemistry before breakfast was a resounding success! The reaction I need to keep doing because I'm trying to make 500 mg of product 50 mg at a time that takes about eight and a half hours. This would normally not be a major problem, but since the circulator broke down, it needs to be babysat. Since it's a -78 reaction and the dry ice has to be topped up once an hour and it's driving us all crazy. I wanted to get to work early in order to not have to stay forever. So my brilliant plan was... skip breakfast and buy something at Timmy's once the reaction was running!
I wasn't sure about this plan since I know from experience I don't function well without breakfast, but it seems to have worked out. I hope we get a new circulator soon though, it's not exactly a very budget friendly approach. If Kim doesn't get that grant, there may be rioting in the lab.
