our apologies....

(B&S in San Marco's Square, Venice Italy)

We've been out of it for the last little while so I will give a quick update and hopefully soon we can get back on this:Yesterday was Brett's first day starting his new job! He's currently in Cleveland, OH for the first week of training and will return this Friday night for the weekend before he heads out to Pittsburgh for 4 weeks. We're hoping to get to see each other a couple times while he's out but those adventures are pending... It stinks because I got used to having him come with me to work and study/work in the med school library while I worked and us have our lunch breaks together. It was fun but we knew it was something that would not last. It's ok, I've made friends with Dwayne and Wayne the janitors among others in my l

ab so I'll survive. We're (mostly me) excited for Brett's job. I joke and say it's about time for me to retire now but we'll just see what the future has to hold.

I'm still working on the mice in my silly little lab. We have 4 med students that are working with us this summer so it's made my days less h

ectic. I'm currently working on growing a stock of cells infected with the virus so I can test the bazillion samples we've got doing various PCR, ELISA, and other random lab things. It's awesome to learn how to do these things I always read about in my books (and never seemed to really unde

rstand). It's a great experience but I've decided that lab research will not be my forever career. It's cool because I'm retiring soon anyway :).

Things to talk about soon on this blog:
