I could use some help in the lab ... . totally unpaid, though. academia is cheap.

bummer. But think of all the time you now have to go ride your bike!

Harriet said...

I am sobbing too. I miss you! Things are just not the same. My work friend pool has shrunk in an unacceptable manner.... oxoxox

Laura said...

Aww. Thanks Harriet.

Ditto. Thanks for dinner the other night. We can still meet for a walk around the Lake sometime! Or the Breakroom (we can call ahead, for laughs).

Laura said...

Twinkie! You too!!! I thought your were speaking from past experience, not present! Beth told me. We should meet for a drink on the EDD's dime (mine hasn't come in yet....). Hee!
