...one very small and soft and sharp bundle of fluff and claws. Everyone, meet Nimue, [livejournal.com profile] goblin_dae's little kitten mistress (she is so whipped). God, she is the most adorable thing ever, and it's very lucky for her that she is because I wouldn't have tolerated her using my hands and feet as claw-and-teeth-sharpening material if she wasn't. I would have smuggled her home with me and let her trash my apartment and make me incapable of ever doing anything productive for the next 18 or so years, but Goblin's bag checks are very thorough.

Look at that face!







She may be a little terror inside, but she's pathetically frightened of the outside. This is her WHY ARE YOU SUBJECTING ME TO THIS HORROR, HUMAN? look.



She is also rather petrified of... grass.



Forgetting for a moment that when the harness is on she's supposed to act like we've broken her spine and crushed her hind legs. Truly the biggest drama queen you will ever meet.





I'm not quite sure what she was looking at here. Possibly our internet browsing history.



Being a kitten is the most exhausting job ever.



Oh yeah, you guys remember that post I made about a month ago where I rambled for a bit about the mphil and the experiment I needed to work in order to confirm the interaction between my two proteins? IT WORKED. I HAVE AWESOME DATA OR SO POST-DOC TELLS ME. You have no idea how excited I am about this - one postive result can get ripped apart in the viva, but two makes me so much more confident about things (and hey, could possibly mean a publication eventually). Oh hell, now I have to write it all up for the thesis. Next week's post: "Oh god, god, god, I don't understand anything HELP ME, WHAT DO ALL THESE NUMBERS MEAN?"

BOTH. Um, supervisor said that they diffracted to a much better size, but there was some degradation and so he has to see if he can merge all three datasets and work from them?

I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT ANY OF THIS MEANS. I AM GOING TO QUIT THIS SCIENCE THING AND APPLY FOR A JOB WITH MCDONALDS.

(before I do that, I will totally find a way to stick a camera onto the microscope and get a picture of my crystals. FOR YOU)
