when it rains...
i got in a car accident tonite. i'm fine, but sammy isn't looking so hot. he's pretty crumpled on his front end. he got the worst of it. but i guess that's what happens when you are sandwiched between two cars.
and tomorrow i give group meeting. maybe to my readers out there, this means nothing. to me, it means a prime opportunity for humiliation in which i am put on display to show just how much i don't know about my research. not just in front of my boss, but everyone in my group.
so in the midst of preparing my slides, and doing my last minute experiments, i have to call the insurance company and cry for sammy's sorry state.
but, the umbrella in this whole unfortunate thunderstorm is the support and love of my family and friends. especially my dad who bought me dinner just before the accident, even if it was only half a dinner. ;)
