Bonus Drunk Post!

Hey guys! And by 'guys' I mean 'no one' because that's who reads this!

I'm drunk right now, because my friend and I went to BYOB dinner and then BYOB comedy show and basically I had a bottle of wine and a beer. And since I've lost 15 to 20 pounds since April (yay, minor victories!), that's... that's plenty to get me drunk. I'm making chik'n nuggets right now (yay, minor victories!) and so whilst I drunkenly consume soy-based pseudo-meats, I want to share a series of truths about myself.

1) I've been using the same password for certain things since I was 10. I tell people I don't even remember what it means, which is why it's perfect. But the truth is, I remember exactly what it means- it's a weird and not entirely intuitive reference to the person I had a crush on at age ten. But the numbers are truly random. Which is why it makes sort of a great password. Still.

2) I love walking home alone at night. I don't even care how dangerous it probably is since I live in the 'hood, at least as far as the north side is concerned.

3) Apparently I'm super into guys with beards. When did this happen? When did I become an old woman?

4) Number of times I've burnt my left arm today: twice. Once earlier when I was taking stuff out of the autoclave; the second was literally two minutes ago, between points 3 and 4, when I burnt myself on the toaster oven making my chik'n nuggets.

5) I miss writing. A lot. You'd think that'd be enough motivation to work on the poster presentation I have to give in nine days, but it's not.

6) I'm also really attracted to funny people.

7) I don't think I'm attractive, so my comprehensive list of people I find attractive (Hi, Cracked's Daniel O'Brien!) is sort of useless because I'd never have the confidence to go through with it.

8) Wine makes me brutally honest, which could be a bad thing when my boss hosts a gathering next weekend, which will involve free food and wine.

9) But really it won't be a bad thing because I sort of adore my boss and all the people I work with, except for the new post-doc, who I'm not entirely convinced on yet. Not as a scientist, anyway. As a person, she's fine.

10) It is sort of depressing I don't have a significant other to bring with me to said soiree, even though despite the fact I'm pretty weird and messed up, I don't think I'm that much more weird and messed up than a lot of people I know in functional relationships.

11) I like the number eleven.
