I’m currently experiencing my first “tropical depression.” It’s name is Alberto. Like everyone said, if hurricanes or tropical storms\/depressions hit “the Triangle” it’s never really bad – just a lot of rain. So, it’s raining. It’s supposed to rain all day long. This means I can’t catch any birds again! Hopefully the birds I have will be okay. On the bright side, literally, Thursday through Sunday are supposed to be extremely hot and sunny. Yay! So I’ll be up at the crack of dawn tomorrow with my traps ready.<\/p>\n
Good news, I have HPLC peaks! I ran standards yesterday and they look good – I think. So now it’s just trying to separate them out a bit and make sure I know which peak is which. The bad news is everyone is leaving – the tech is off to his new job tomorrow, and the PI is going on vacation this afternoon. The good news is I think I now know what I’m doing and can probably keep myself busy fiddling with different standards until Monday when the PI gets back. Let’s just hope I don’t totally screw things up!<\/p>\n
More good news: I found a bus that goes from school to the one real mall in Durham. Yay!!! So I’m going on Saturday. YAY!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
