Darwin and UCA

Just what did this universal common ancestor look like and where did it live? Theobald's study doesn't answer this question. Nevertheless, he speculated, "to us, it would most likely look like some sort of froth, perhaps living at the edge of the ocean, or deep in the ocean on a geothermal vent. At the molecular level, I'm sure it would have looked as complex and beautiful as modern life."

love sciencedaily.com

i cant wait to get this for my brithday.
i wish it would be sooner than that but i guessss it'll do

i love the light bulb idea!!!

i keep killing all the indoor plants i try to bring home
other than the aloe vera plant everything dies... ::Tear::

ivy should be fine tho hopesooo...

yay to better lazy days and students doing work independently and not being too loud and annoying. one student being gone makes all the others better... so lovely

How did I know id be eating whataburger tonight. Fml. I am sick of the routine. Sick of myself.

it is amazing how much these whiny and obnoxious children can put me in a bad mood. i provide them with everything and they complain that they cant do it. it is so frustrating. i think my pms is also a part of it.

i am just tiredddd...

we took a field trip to corpus christi yesterday to see the state aquarium and the USS Lexington. it was interesting. the students weren't as rambunctious as i thought they would be, which was very very good!

now i am just exhausted. a two and a half hour drive on a charter bus to and from in the same day was exhausting.

the students are working on research papers now.
always a good break for me.
and i need it.

ughhhhh!
not in the mood...
annoyed with they day.
and getting hungryyyyyy...
