This weekend was interesting. It started out with my BFF bailing on me. My cells were ready and healthy but the incubator on the microscope refused to function so I could not set up my experiments (I need to increase my n!). That was a huge disappointment.
Then, on Saturday morning I woke up really early to try and troubleshoot the microscope error and also to finish up experiments before meeting Carol at the airport. However, to our surprise, she was not on the flight, oooooops! So we had a practice run and then my German PI took us out to breakfast anyway. The next day, we repeated the procedure, this time with Carol and her family. We did a little bit of sightseeing afterwards!
Today, it was back to work but still no luck with the microscope. The microscope staff did not know how to fix it so we are going to have to wait for the Zeiss service guy. Oh, technology, I love you but you are a pain sometimes!
