DOH!!!!!

Okay, I hate it when this happens. About six weeks ago (or so), I was walking down the hall when I ran into the person in Facilities responsible for fixing/maintaining our clean hoods. He said "I need to certify your hoods, and I'm free May 27th at 9:30AM". I said "fine", and kept going on my way.

I had forgotten about that appointment until 9:30 this AM when I was trying to get my work done in a clean hood, and he came in the room. So I had to get to a stoping point, and leave so he could certify that they are still functional. It's just fustrating - I can't leave until this gets done, and now I have to wait until he's done.

I used to keep a handfull of stickies in my labcoat pocket so that I could write down such important bits of information, but I guess I lost those a while back...

The funny thing about camping - all my clothes and towel for the weekend are in a backpack. It's all the camping gear that takes up space. Things like lantern, mattress, food, etc.

Still looking forward to going, but am getting nervous. I heard about the wildfires around of Casa Grande (by the I-10/I-8 junction). If it gets worse, they may have to close one or both interstates. I know that with the holiday weekend, they'll only do that if they have to, so keep up the good work firefighters.
