i have an apartment

i got an apartment in new haven for the next two years. people will have to come and visit me there. but until then, here are a few pictures....

the outside of the house:


here is the nook in my huge bedroom:


and here is my kitchen:


isn't that pretty and nice? the place also has a washer/dryer in the apartment and is less than 2 blocks from campus. hopefully it will be fun.

i'm now back in pittsburgh working in lab, waiting for my pcr reaction to be done and for tiffany to come in and tell me where the cut vector that i need is located. hopefully that will happen soon. maybe i'll start posting about my experiments again this summer. i have lots and lots of free time. at least i will get a lot of reading done, and maybe finish the cross stitch of cinderella that i've been working on for a year and a half. then i can start another one. :)

i get free food this afternoon because the gewit and atom are getting aladin's for their summer residents and i get to mooch of course. probably other people can too.

amazingly, we actually went out for the poop's 21st birthday for drinks and a lousy band was playing. it was still fun though. and i'm in charge of passing on the sparkly 21 tiara to gerrit in a month. then he will pass it on to the next person, which is alexo i think. how exciting.

fluffies remain well and snuggly. i now live in the sunroom of the not sns/not beth's/cbh/whatever you want to call it house. i have a mattress so life is better than it was on tuesday when i moved in and had no place to sleep.

eh, back to waiting for people to come and experiments to be done. what fun!!
