house sitting

We recently spent two weeks house sitting for durdge while they were in Hawaii. It was interesting moving to a much larger space than we have now. (They have a three-bedroom spread out over two floors with larger common-area space.)

( Some thoughts on living space )

I think a two-bedroom might be nice, but I would want use the second bedroom for storage, guests, exercise equipment, and possibly my office (although I bet I wouldn't go in there very often). I really like having our main work/play spaces in the same area. Plus I like things being cozy although I wish we had more room to have people over more often.

Joy of Motion Open Houses

If you're in the DC area Joy of Motion is holding open houses this weekend. I love Joy of Motion, I've been taking classes for a couple of years and now I'm a work study. If you're curious you should go check it out.

pipette music video (and more)

As arallara quoted nakedbee "If you have any interest in boy bands, women scientists, or automated pipetting equipment you should watch this music video/commercial immediately!"

This video is mindblowingly random and awesome. When was the last time you used a pipette?

OMG there's more. There's this. I have no words.

Best line: "when you need to know who the daddy is"

And to properly mark the historical moment I should include a link to the Large Hadron Rap. I'm sure most of you have seen it, but for future reference.
