Yes, ok – I know. The blog’s been dead for 9 days, and some of you might not have been able to view it at all. I can explain: It was dead for 9 days because I’ve had a case of the busies and nothing interesting to write about, and if you couldn’t view it, it was because I’ve had a case of the stupids and changed the security code of the site without re-installing the actual code. No, I don’t know what that means either.

In other news – well, I’m currently in project limbo: Stuck in a vicious circle of repeating the same experiments without actually achieving anything. Pisses my supervisors something awful – I dread to think what references they’ll give me: Persistently incompetent or something like that. I should have taken gardening. By the way, if by any chance the word “immunoprecipitation” means anything to you, please do get in touch. Especially if it means something happy.

Oh, I nearly forgot: Against all rational behaviour (’cause, you know, doing a PhD is rational), I have dared to start writing again. While I’m writing my thesis. With experiments missing and incomplete. Yes, I know. I’m an idiot.

My new “opus” currently bears no title, and that’s all I’m going to say about it at this stage. That’s right. No commitments. No leaks. No press. I’m sure you’re tantalised. Yeah, you totally are.

I’ll ride my unicorn away to Never-Never land now.
