January:
1/17 -- I have to do a seminar in February... and I'm scared! I'll be talking about hrp genes, and it makes me wonder if the mycologists who'll be my audience will really care.

1/27 -- I was googling pictures for halo blight of bean and got a picture of Rudy Guiliani instead. If I wasn't so irked about not finding picture of tobacco HR, I would think this was funny.

February:
2/2 -- The guy who played Mr. Willoughby in Masterpiece Theatre's Sense and Sensibility reminds me of the singer dude from Panic at the Disco. ....Hunh. Jane Austen kills me. So does my seminar....

2/17 -- I was just reading up on Hamlet, and Laertes was supposed to say "for in his choice depends the safety and health of this whole state," and I read " for in his choice depends the food safety and health commission." ....I've been working too much.

2/26 -- I want to read Bronte and Austen and watch West Side Story. What's wrong with me?

March:
3/10 -- So there're a couple versions of Hamlet done up as a Westernized manga. I personally think that Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead would be better to do.

May:
5/19 -- I can do the experiments, but I can't do the summaries. I feel so stupid.
5/19 -- I wish I didn't have to take care of everything, either. I feel like a premature housewife with no kids or husband.

August:
8/19 -- I just paid for my first Kiva loan. I'm loaning to a farmer in Tajikistan who has 6 kids and grows melons. I want this guy to succeed.

November:

11/11 -- My dogs do not like photographers.
11/17 -- Last week was horrible. This week is getting worse. I FEEL LIKE SUCH A GRAD STUDENT.
