Right, well, now that THAT's done with..

Posted by Allyson Morton on 2009-07-29

It's nice to be able to sit at the computer and blog, finally. The past week has truly been insane. I had a presentation to prepare for our lab meeting (which wound up going 30 minutes... oops) and in order to do that, I had to get a LOT more data.

It was crunch time.

In lab, I'm usually a 9:30-5 kind-of girl. This morphed into ~8 to ~6. One day I stayed till 7:30. I had several scratch wound assays to do, LOTS of immunofluorescent staining (before this past week, I had no data on it!) and had to compile my data into something that made sense for analysis. Yeah, I was busy - VERY busy. Non-stop work, except for a short lunch break when my stuff had to dry on coverslips. But it's nice to be able to sit back a little and relax. I'm still doing experiments - I'm going to scratch another set of cells tomorrow - but I have break time inbetween!

So, I'm pretty much done!
