So as Friday was illness day, Saturday was go into work and thaw my cells out for culture and the next round of experiments day. Sunday was walk by the River Itchen in the sunshine and have an ice-cream, get phone call from Supervisor informing me I have to give a talk tomorrow day. Then obviously Sunday turns into read a million papers (mainly this one, which is a bit shite really), wrestle with Journal Club PowerPoint presentation until midnight day.

Fortunately, at midnight, Wrestlemania XXVI kicked off with an unexpected but sublime Money In The Bank ladder match win by CM Punk, followed by an exhilarating and emotional Shawn Michaels vs Rick Flair, the Snoop Dogg adjudicated Playmate Boobzilla Bapsnatch (or whatever it's actually called. I care not because mmmmm Melina), the obligatory money-spinning novelty match: Floyd Merryweather vs The Big Show, and of course the AMAZING UNDERTAKER VS THE EDGE finale. Lots of squeeings and stampings from [livejournal.com profile] evildrem, [livejournal.com profile] desincarne and even me: we rather liked John Morrison and of course Shawn Michaels, Edge and Undertaker are all mighty mighty fine wraaaaaastlers.


Cloud and Spiky


Monday was back to work, after getting home at around 4.30am after Wrestlemania. Trotted off to the labs in Whitechapel for a change to give my presentation in this white pod thing at top left (it's actually a lecture theatre a.k.a Large Cloud; Spiky is in the background). Cue Mac to PC PowerPoint formatting horrors and half an hour of faffing. Got the damn talk done in the end tho, then had to go and do all the rest of the stuff I should have been doing that day in half the time. Eventually got home from work at 8.30pm, totally grumpy and hormonal: shout at everyone and make self highly unpopular.

Wake up this morning very late and very shivery. Remember today is PathSoc Summer Meeting Abstract Deadline Day. WILL THE HORROR NEVER END?

Are you coming to Gogol Bordello tomorrow?

It's sold out through Ticketweb, but there are some on Ebay at not-insane prices.

nah. I am probably not in London tomorrow, plus I am totally destitute at the moment. I might *just* make IAMX Thursday if I can get the cash lent but again... it's not terribly likely

I am gonna try and meet up with folks after work Thursday tho, need to arrange it!
