Recurrent Characters
- Better Half - My sweet and charming significant other, also a very talented scientist.
- DangerDog - My contribution to our fur family. He is adorable and hyper-excitable and would probably be easier to live with if Ritalin were approved for dogs.
- GrAdvisor - My well-meaning PI/graduate advisor. We have our differences, but I can chalk most of them up to disparate communication styles, which makes it easier to live with the fall-out of our communication-fails.
- New PI - So far an awesome mentor. Needs a moniker. Will take suggestions.
- Thing 1 & Thing 2 - BH's cats. Actually, I'm not sure if they really are cats or some alien life forms bent on world domination.

Yayayay!! Congrats, good luck, and keep us posted.
Congrats!!
When is the interview?
Soon.
That's fantastic news - congrats! I'm sure you'll slay them with your brilliance.
Congrats and goodluck! You're going to kick ass!!
Make sure you practice your research seminar in front of your grad lab, and tell them to be as critical as possible!
what PP said. i am taking over next week's group meeting for that exact purpose.
good luck!! ELEVENTY!!! :)
Congrats and kick butt!
Yay! Congratulations and GOOD LUCK!!
Yeah! You'll do great! I second the practice talk recommendation. Our lab always have BRUTAL practice talks where the talk gets ripped apart and then pieced back together, but nearly always ends up in a much better state than even the speaker would have thought...
YAY!! Good luck! I know you'll rock it
Knock em dead!
I always ask two questions of the people who interview here:
-What do you want to learn while you're here?
-What skills/knowledge/expertise do you bring to the lab?
Just about any answer is good, as long as it seems the person has thought about it. When people start to ramble, I start to get worried.
Thanks everyone!
Yay, congrats! Have fun, and do what PP said--especially find the meanest people you can to help practice your talk.
Good luck. Just remember, you are interviewing them as much as they are interviewing you!
LMFAO
Suddenly the end is nigh!
Well done. Good luck.
Good luck!
Congrats! And good luck!!
(yes, please let us know how it goes!)
congratulations!!! did you have it yet???
I'm terribly late, but congratulations! I hope it goes/went well.
Congrats and good luck!
