I haven't posted in a while because things don't seem to be postworthy lately. That is to say that all recent happenings have maintained a status equal to or less than "unremarkable." I think it's important to post regularly, though, so I will just post random thoughts, I guess. You may not notice any difference.
We are having a late snow storm here in Chicago, but the weather is just warm enough to keep it from stacking up. It's not that odd to see snow in April, I think, but the volume has been surprising people. No worries, though. My tomato seeds are happily germinating in the basement, next to the water heater, and should be ready to move to peat pellets soon. Since I have so little yard space (about enough room for an adult snow angel), I will gardening in containers this year. As a result, I have chosen some small heirloom tomato varieties from Victory Seeds. I will post photos of the plants and their fruit as the summer comes and goes, assuming I can get them to work (should be fine).

Nothing new at work, aside from my data, which I won't relay here, as it is not of general interest. I'll save it for the journals. I am still trying to guess what may happen to me after my time in this lab ends (in a year, unless something changes $$$-wise). Toward that end, I am applying for all of the jobs in the Midwest that I think I can compete for, and some that I know I can't. Can't hurt to try. I have been invited for precisely 0 interviews, but that's OK . . . for now. Something will give eventually, if I keep trying. I hope.
Tonight is the second game in my team's Volleyball season. We try to play something all the time, and this Vball season will carry us into the softball season. It's a nice pastime, and it gets me out of K's hair at least one night per week. She is a person who recharges during "alone time," unlike me. I'm more gregarious and draw energy from being around other people. I also enjoy doing things alone, but I have the most fun hanging with friends. Anyway, we are out to win second match in a row, which we have never done. Could be a big night!
Here's hoping.

OOOO!I can't wait to see pictures of the tomato plants! I have always wanted to grow things - especially edible things. Alas, I have no talent in that area.
BTW, most of my posts are about unremarkable things. I like to read about other people's mundane moments just as much as I like to write about my own.
