Okay. I'll just sit on the floor babbling like a baby until you float down with your umbrella long-sleeve shirt with a hood...
You're a persistent lil' fellow, aren't you...? ;)
I'm a female fellow, but yes, I'm persistent.
Fellow is unisex. My memory is prone to pulling me nasty pranks, so I went on the safe side, hehe.

Now, I don't know what the weather's like around your part of the planet (you're in the States IIRC?), but over here I'm in a t-shirt, cursing for having to bear the jeans jacket I wore in the morning.

I'm in the southeastern US. Atlanta, GA. Also in a t-shirt, as it still averages in the 80's, I'd say. Actually, I'm lying. I'm not in a t-shirt, I'm in my pajamas. But, they're short-sleeved pajamas.
In the '80s...you almost gave me a flashback there...You know, Atlanta, '80s, Matlock! Then I realized it's 80 Fahrenheit you're talking about. 22-24 Celsius is about the temp we've got over here at the moment (that's 72-75 F) You REALLY should start using Celsius grades and METERS over there! You too, ye englishmen! :P

And the bloody PCR keeps returning blanks! Damn I hate it when I don't get results!

I hate when that happens. Again, I'm lying. I have no idea what you're talking about. But I think I recall you saying you're a veterinarian, am I correct? You have my dream career, if that's the case. As a little girl, I checked out books on veterinary medicine for fun. I was, oh, 6 or 7 years old. :P Went to college, to a college with a very good veterinary school, I must add, and majored in...journalism. Oh, well. Never got anywhere in that major, anyway. Spent most of my twenties working as a vet tech. making less money than a burger-flipper. Damn, I wish I'd gone to vet school.
PCR, aka Polymerase Chain Reaction is basically taking a small sample of DNA and multiplying a certain region of it millionfold times. Well, I really love animals (particularly dogs), so I think it was bound to happen. Bad thing with my PhD is it's almost exclusively lab work, so I don't get to see or treat any live animals. All I see of them dogs is their DNA. And it's a scarce sight as well these past weeks! >:(
Brynne:
I was a lab tech for about 2 weeks. My supervisor and I apparently had a personality conflict. She was a bitch, I'm not.
I love all animals, but particularly herptiles. I've been fascinated by reptiles since I saw my first lizard. Usually I have a house full of animals, but at the present time I'm down to 2 cats, 3 leopard geckos and a five-lined skink my father rescued from a glue trap. My husband keeps my animal population in check, despite my insistence that we get more, more, more. I wish I could have dogs, since I grew up with them, but my son is allergic. We had 2 german shephard-husky mix dogs, but my parents had to adopt them from us once my son developed allergies.
I majored in Art for a while in college, too, so now I do commissioned portraits of people's pets. At least I'm putting some of my college experience to work, huh?
Jorenne:
I can actually beat that for obsessiveness, truely I can.
I have an excel database with the names, actual dates of birth, period in months before I will allow them to age (see previous post somewhere about my aging polivcies) Family connections, job titles, career paths, and all of this spanning several generations of a huge 80+ household neighbourhood. I also have a family tree that I used Legacy Software ti produce, and that's before you get to all the folders of hardcopies of houseplans (In case a lot gets corrupted I have the floor plan to rebuild from) a bi-monthly census of the neighbourhoo.
Oh not to mention the online forum where my sims blog and chat with each other.
I'm not obsessed.....just committed.
Muisie:
Jorenne, please tell me you don't have a full time job as well. Because then I'll have to go kill myself. I hardly have time to even play the game!
