Listening to: "Crawling" - Linkin ParkI can't believe I'm going back to Rice tomorrow and start up work the next day. I would almost rather be there though. Home isn't bad, but I get really lazy whenever I go back. At least this time around I'm doing some reading. I finally got another Sherrilyn Kenyon Dark-Hunter novel, Night Pleasures. The book involves the (more normal) twin of the vampire slaying heroine in Seize the Night. The explicit scenes get kind of tiring (it IS a romance series), but Kenyon manages to keep things interesting and funny. You gotta love a person who can come up w/ a Greek mythological origin for vampires.
Since I don't have anything else to say and y'all had a couple questions, I'll respond to the comments. First off, the Shakespearean phrase from the last quote now means any sort of acceptable offering. Brutus was saying that even though they're supposed to assassinate Caesar, they shouldn't mutilate his body ("Let us be sacrificers, not butchers"). Now I'm suddenly reminded of last night's episode of FMA w/ Barry the Chopper. XD Secondly, on the subject of FMA, Vic is definitely one of my favorite voice actors. He plays very diverse roles; I found out that he's in a lot of the anime I own (Saiyuki, Generator Gawl, Yu Yu Hakusho). What makes him stand out though is that he sees himself as an FMA fan like the rest of us. He's also just up for anything. I mean, who calls up Steve Blum in the middle of an FMA panel? ^_^ Finally, the fly lab (in the biochemistry side of things) is a genetics research lab. I'm going to be altering the DNA of fruit flies and seeing how that affects their ability to sense gravity. I'll actually be running them through a maze like mice, LOL. The fly lab means a different thing for the ecology majors b/c in that lab, they have go and catch house flies to analyze factors on population genetics (like inbreeding).
Quote of the day:
"Here I am trying to kiss my girl, and you have to interrupt us. What, were you raised in a barn? . . . By the way, touch the woman-- or the Lambourghini-- and you're a dead man." - Kyrian in Night Pleasures by Sherrilyn Kenyon
already?
