OK honestly

I tried and I tried and I tried to make the words in my last post match up with the pictures.

I failed.

Stoopid Blogger.

Made my 'puter crash more than once.

Well, there was that very loud pop yesterday - as if a lightbulb had blown out - emanating from under my left hand while I was typing yesterday.

Might be time for a new laptop.

Cape Ann Weekend

Howdy - long time/ no post. But hey - I been busy.
Abstract to BioScience2006 went out last week. Busily knitting up an overly ambitious lace project that needs to be done by July 1st - that will be a challenge.
This past weekend was a bbq at a friend's apt - which was a blast - and a day trip to Cape Ann - specifically Gloucester and Rockport - on Easter Sunday.

here are some pics - TSB's ear and the view from the quarry in Rockport:


and a v. cool sculpture:


We met Pi while we were out:




Here is a shot of humanitarian TSB, returning a stranded live clam to the ocean:

not that I follow the zodiac -

I am a scientist, afterall.
And not that I put any credence whatsoevah in these on-line quizzes, because hey, since when did 4-5 questions nail my personality?
Good thing I am a Cancerian, though.


You Should Be A Cancer

What's good about you: you're incredibly kind, caring, and generous

What's bad about you: you can be too moody and impossible to understand

In love: you enjoy wining and dining the object of your affection

In friendship, you're: likely to depend on other friends for emotional support

Your ideal job: historian, marine biologist, or religious figure

Your sense of fashion: you dress to match your mood

You like to pig out on: classic home cooked meals, like mac and cheese


Yours, in all my crabbiness (which, remarkably, perfectly described my mood this weekend, but that is a post for another day... )
