goddamn this old-ass building

Our heat is busted today!  I'm feeling tired and prickly and wearing two pairs of pants.  Scab-cat and Fluff-cat are both poofed out for maximum heat retention.  Fluff-cat is feeling particularly ornery about it all and keeps letting us know with his Whiny Three Year Old Human Baby meows.

My undergrad mentee is having a rough finals week.  It makes feel like an absolute mom but I'm still texting him to ask if he's eating.  College culture is deeply fucked up.  I tell every undergraduate who comes through our lab that they should be working less, sleeping more and getting worse grades.  Then I repeat myself until they know I'm serious.  God, our secondary education system is hell on kids.

Cleaned the apartment, bought clementines and swiss rolls, wrote 75 words about amyloid-like fibrils.  Not a lot, but it's something!  Every time I sweep this place I somehow find so much change.
