Words of the Day: Feeling like there's a hedgehog in my throat.
For anyone not familiar with the creatures, hedgehogs are small spiny things much loved in the UK by old people and me. Not happy that my throat feels that way, but there you go - if you're going to live in a place like England, you have to expect to get ill once in a while. It's all par for the course.
I know it's been ages since I blogged, but I've been rather busy, so there. Taking the opportunity today though, since I decided that I was ill enough to take the day off. Not that I have a great deal to be doing right now. I did make some piss-coloured polymer gel the other day. it was meant to be fluorescent, and though I haven't tested it under excitation yet, I have a feeling that the heating process which makes it a gel as denatured the fluorophores. I don't think that'll make a lot of sense unless you know about polymers and fluorescence, but this is my blog, dammt, and I'll make it as scientific as I like!! AAAARRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
