Playing catch-up
I promise there will eventually be more stimulating and though-provoking posts coming at some time in the future, but for now, I’m just playing catch-up on my life 
My lab celebrated Halloween this past week, in true Woz lab fashion (well, I actually don’t know if you could call it fashion or not… hehe). Our theme this year was ‘Alice in Wonderland’ (past years have included ‘Peter Pan’, a softball team, and our best theme, ‘Wizard of Woz’), and I got talked into being Alice. We had a lot of fun as usual, going out to lunch on that day and getting a LOT of strange looks and laughs from the people in the restaurant. 
My costume was too big and not the most comfortable thing in the world, but it was fun as a group event. Evidence of this hilarious event (and yes, we are a bunch of dorks ):
(and the boss wasn’t in town, so we put a picture of his face on a stuffed mouse, so he could be the Doormouse – hehe)
Oh, and we had a halloween party a couple weeks ago, with a ‘superhero’ theme – I was Jean Grey (XMen), though I pretty much just dressed in black and made an X necklace – but we had three XMen at the party, so we got this picture of the three of us (Wolverine, Jean Grey and Cyclops):
We had a spectacular bonfire a week or so ago up at our bible study leader’s house – roasted hot dogs, made s’mores and sang some worship songs – it was a really fun time to hang out with friends – chilly, but fun!
My little brother’s birthday is this week (Wednesday), and I think it might make me feel a bit older to have him turning 25 than it did when I turned 26 this year Go here and wish him happy birthday!
OK, I think that’s about it – we got the proofs for the paper last last week, and it was really surreal to see the pages the way they’ll look in the journal in the next couple months – Dan thinks it’ll be published in the December edition, but it’s already online as an ePub ahead of publication here
yay!
