stuff
Sorry for neglecting the blog. I've been pretty busy lately. My boss gave me a few experiments to try to see if a collaboration between us and another lab on this one project would work. The experiments didn't turn out the way we wanted them to. I'm a little bummed but the results are clear so I feel like I did my job. I'm on to the next project, hopefully this one will turn out better. Anyway here's some stuff from the past month or so.
went to Mendocino a few weeks ago. It's about 3 hours north of SF. It's a nice place but a little too young couplely.
waves would crash into this hole in the side of the cliff and water would spray everywhere but everytime I filmed it the waves sucked.
went on like a 3 hour hike in russian gultch
there was an awesome waterfall
made some amazing chos the other day. They almost beat chilli's but I didn't have the cheese/refried bean ratio just right.
Leslie and I went to a basketball game, Dallas Mavericks vs. golden state warriors. It was my first time. All in all it was pretty good. During timeouts crazy shit would happen. One time the mavericks called a time out and all the screens started flashing "PIZZA DASH!!" and dudes dressed as chefs came running out with pizza boxes and gave them to the fans who seemed the most stoked. I also had some really good garlic fries. If you ask me the big white german guy on the mavericks doesn't really live up to the hype of having a life size statue of him at the mall in dallas. There was this little dude on the gsw's that was f'ing amazing. He's offically my favorite basketball player, but I can't remember his name. Mavericks won.

long overdue update
Hey, sorry about neglecting the blog. Here's some highlights of the past month.
partied on the salt flats for a minute on the trip.
First night in SF. We ate a bubba gump shrimp co at the navy pier of san francisco...awesome shrimp by the way and then our waitress started a forest gump trivia contest between us and some surrounding tables...I think we won.
rode the marry go round
saw this
went to a wax museum...they are super underrated.
went to monterey with hunter last weekend.
at the aquarium there was also this penguin that bent over and shit all over another one and the one that got shit on was totally unfazed by it.
Work wise I patch clamped (took voltage control of) a pyramidal neuron in a mouse brain slice that had been shot with a piece of gold dust that had DNA on it encoding a glowing jellyfish protein. You can see the dust particle (black dot in the glowing neuron). I was pretty stoked about it. That neuron is about 1/10 the diameter of a human hair.
