Hi, all!
I have new pictures- lots of 'em! I'm just too lazy to keep up three things at once, so I've been concentrating on keeping up on photos. So check 'em out!

Seattle
Today we got up at 5:00. Ick. Ick, ick, ick.
We went to the airport and there was a lot of sitting and watching people. I enjoyed it. I love to fly- did you know that? I like the weightless feeling, and the way the plane speeds up a ton before take-off. What power!
A very nice guy, Kyle, gave us a ride to our hotel- the University Inn. I like it a lot. Free wireless, big room, big windows, nice bathroom... all the necessities. We couldn't check in for an hour or two when we got here, so we walked around a bunch and I took some pictures. After resting at the hotel for a while, it was time for dinner.
We went to Bai Pai, a Thai restaurant in the University District of Seattle. It was yummy! But dinner wasn't first on the menu- we had appetizers and cocktails in the bar first. I couldn't bring myself to tell anyone that it was illegal to offer me drinks. Or for me to even be there, really. (Oh, well.) Everyone mingled over cocktails for a while, and people confused me with a Genomics Grad student. Tee hee. Little do they know.
When we got to the dinner part, it was cool. We all sat down wherever we pleased and had a leisurely buffet style meal. Again with the alcohol, though. "No, thanks," again. We sat next to some really nice people. A guy named Aaron kept eyeing me. Weird. For more than one reason.
I think that's the most concentrated dose of scientific blather that I've ever been exposed to. I understood what everyone was talking about and everything, it was just really intensely boring to me. But, all in all, everyone was friendly and helpful and they gave Tim lots of good advice for his interviews. Dessert was coconut ice cream with macaroons. It was really interestingly delicious.
On to bed. 5:00 is way too early.
