- Submitted the NSF grant last Friday - my first major grant proposal as PI. Woo hoo!
- People visited over the weekend. And bought me nice presents.
- Finished reading Valley of the Dolls on Sunday night. Wow, THAT was depressing.
- Why can't I remember anything about Monday? Pizza. I made a pizza. With Italian sausage. Yum.
- Got old on Tuesday. I guess that wasn't so bad - it involved two bottles of rosé with friends at lunch, and a five-course tasting menu with my husband at dinner. Plus sapphires. And a giant bouquet of flowers. And cake.
- Said goodbye to postdoc friend moving away to tenure track job on Wednesday.
- Ran the last of the summer's captive experiments on Thursday. Hooray!
I'm afraid this blog's gotten a bit boring lately. I stopped catching birds a few weeks ago (no more torturing birds, PhysioProf... FOR NOW...) so I don't have any new angry bird photos for you. But here's a picture of a catbird for you:
I cannot figure out how the hell I am holding onto this bird, but I like that it is turning around and giving me the evil eye.

Congrats on submitting your NSF grant!
And sapphires are always nice too :D
I've neglected my blog too. And I am busy and have cranks.
Hope we both snap out of it soon.
That bird is gonna fuck you up!
congrats on getting the grant out and good luck with it.
yes, congrats on getting the grant out!
for the record, i don't think this is whiny at all! nor are/were your bird pictures boring! i loved them!! i scrolled through all of them for the SB. they were great.
Mmmm, sapphires. They're my birthstone and I've always loved them best. Lucky, lucky you. But the whole birthday day sounded fabulous, how great! And to have the grant finally finished just caps it all. Finally, all kinds of good stuff. Happy for you.
