May. 29th, 2007 01:47 pmWeek Two of being a lab rat, and it's actually pretty decent. Most of what I do is run tests, which involves fiddling with electrodes for a bit and then waiting for them to Do Stuff. It would be excrutiatingly dull if the computer in here didn't have an internet connection. With intertubes contact, however, life is far more bearable.
I suppose my only two real complaints would be a lack of instant messenger service and the rule barring chewing gum in the lab. I've developed a mild addiction to raspberry mint gum and a lack of things to chew on makes my jaw bored.
The Deadzone RPG has been more fun than I expected from my original 'Transformers are Serious Business' impressions. Of course, this might have something to dio with the fact that Starfighter's actually getting a touch of respect for his abilities instead of being relegated to the part of occasionally-useful geek the way I'd been expecting. I like that and so does he; I think he's taken a bit of a shine to Dead End and Hook for exactly that reason.
Demolishor, on the other hand, is very confused but I think he's stopped yelling at people for the duration. I'm actually considering bringing in Scavenger to bolster the Autobots in the old warrior department and cause a bit of Constructiconfusion once I see how many (if any) people have more than two characters. Don't want to be playing puppetmaster to too many robots.
*goes to read back through Abe & Kroenen again to look for all the Friends Only bonus material*
I'm going to see Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End again on Wednesday night. Anyone who cares to join us is quite welcome to do so if they can put up with my general squee and exclamations of OTPs (which, this being PotC, will be approximately every three minutes. The whole damn setting is an OTP, props included. And Jack has sexual tension with rocks and I AM NOT BEING METAPHORICAL HERE. He does.)
EDIT: Also, note to self. Attaching the electrodes before turning on the DC is a lot more helpful than leaving them dangling for ten minutes and letting the pH do what it isn't supposed to do in the meantime while I waste the lab's electricity.
