Waiting

It's been a long weekend here in the forest... I had minimal work to do on Thursday, then it rained on friday, I slept all yesterday, and today I just need to cut some bungee cord.

And you thought science was fast paced! Well don't get me wrong... it is. But right now we're waiting for the grasshoopers to hatch. I still need to do a few things to my cages (add in the treatments) but otherwise I'm just waiting.

Yesterday I went to lunch at The Vanilla Bean, delicious little cafe near my field site. I had a spicy blue cheese burger, very yummy. For some reason every middle aged white biker gang was there as well, and I almost ended up leading a particularly overweight, middle-aged, white biker gang to the nearest ice cream stand. And it is a damn good ice cream stand: We-Li-Kit.

Oh and I've been filling my time with watching Dexter on watchtvsitcoms.com. It's a good show, not like Weeds (starts Tuesday), or Nip/Tuck, but it's quality.

Well really not much going on right now, but it's still a ballin summer. I'm gonna go to wal-mart today and buy a few of those floating mattress things so that I can float in the reservoir out back. Come join me!

much love,
kathy
