Feeling dead on my feet. Playing catch-up on all fronts. And now? I go to work, because I need to eat.

Life in the Lab: How many years of work are in that waste jar?

This morning, my employer discovered that her deep freezer had died, and the alarm didn't go off. The device is in the freezer room, where we don't often happen to walk past it, so we have no idea how long it's been nonfunctional - except that some of the samples had started growing mold.

So what I'm doing today? Disposing of spoiled samples, and cleaning dozens of test tubes and litle vials. And keeping my inhaler handy, since I'm allergic to mold spores.

Dear body,

You and I both know that we need to get up at 08:00 in order to have half a chance at making it to class on time. So why, after complaining all day about being exhausted, do you suddenly return to wakefulness less than two hours before we need to go to sleep? Are you trying to create a repeat of today and yesterday?

On second thought, don't answer that. I don't want to know.

No love,
- Me
