left alone

so, i finished up the analysis BY MYSELF! well, just gathering the data . . . but still, it's likean $80,000 machine! and at the end, there is your usual fill this container empty this contain kind of thing . . . so, i thought i'd be a good girl and take those steps seriously. so, the thing to empty wasn't very full - that got left the way it was. the thing i needed to fill is really complicated to open. once i got it open, i found out that it did not have enough fluid for the next person - so i should fill it. well, the place to refill it is a box with a bag of liquid - like a box of wine. and it was basically empty. so, i got to drag the next box and try to open it. and then spill. and then fix. and then spill. basically, i was an idiot. but i FINALLY got it working and filled the container - just as the next person was walking in. THANK GOD! because it's one of the guys that works in my lab (this is a community machine) and he has a vaguely holier than though air about him soo . . . i was really excited to be all finished by the time he walked in AND have nicely followed procedure :)

that was long and i don't care ;)
