I’m so backlogged with photos and writing and, well, everything. I recently downloaded a chunk of photos from my cell phone . Completely random photos, taken over the span of about 18 months . A shocking number of them were science-related. Are you ready for a huge random photo dump?

It's a blog. I don't really know what it's about either.

Lab books in action, on my desk at the lab.
Notes on how I diluted the PMA stock
My last to-do list at the lab on the board over my desk.
The South Pole side of my ice box. On the other side of it is a polar bear.
This is what melanin synthesis looks like. In the tube, that is. My skin is not very good at it.
My old desk. Featuring squishy cow, squishy pig, trilobite action figures, multiple coffee cups/mugs, a slinky, a pen holder made from a Pringles container, and a bunch of butterfly magnets.
Data analysis. Or: how to complete suck the joy out of pretty confocal images.Okay, those were the ones from the lab, but there were other science-themed photos from other locations!
This is where I defended my PhD (public part of defense). It’s called the “Red Room” – can you guess why?
A caffeine cake I got for Christmas once.
Year of Astronomy advertisement in the subway. There are a bunch of different ones and they have cool science facts on them.
A talk by David Colq..Co..Coquh… you know, that guy with the name who speaks out against quackery.
Cafe Scientifique with Tony Pawson et al. It was on the night at which we also had a Nature Network pub night at the same location (Duke of York)
Drs Glover and Glover at the 100 year Biochem party. I should probably update both about my progress with the scientist/musician project.
Stacks at the Gerstein science library
Geeky joke on a sign on a door at the Sidney Smith Arts & Science building at UofT.
Downstairs in the MaRS building, where scientists go to buy coffee before retreating to their labs.I actually had even more science photos on my phone, but the quality of the rest was really bad and you couldn’t actually see what was going on anymore.

Trilobite action figures? Wants! Wants!
It’s from this set from the Royal Ontario Museum. Actually my favourite of the bunch is not the trilobite (the green/orange thing on my desk) but the opabinia toy.
Gee Minor must be the only child ever to have got not one but two real trilobites for her birthday, from two different people.
She was three.
Is the caffine in the cake as well (or just on it)? Either way, it looks yummy.
The caffeine was also IN the cake! And the N and O atoms were made of coffee beans.
