I'm Baaaaaaack

I'm back from SfN.  My talk went well, and I had a good time.  Very exhausting, as usual.  I got my photo taken with Brenda Milner (of Scoville and Milner, 1957, who first described the patient H.M.).  Cool!  As soon as I get the photo from my friend W, I'll post it.

Today was very cold in Cambridge.  The high was something like 37 F.  I remember getting anxious when the *low* was in the 30s in California.  Hehe.  My fingers were icicles by the time I got to lab this morning.  One cool thing (pun intended, oh so funny) is that when I bought ice cream at the grocery store and walked home with it, it was still frozen when I got home.  Woohoo!

Found out that my plan to spend Thanksgiving with my roommate is no more.  She's now going to NYC, so for now I might be on my own.  Unless I can find some Bostonian to latch onto.  Well, if I'm alone, I am thinking about starting my day by making some Wholesome Banana Chocolate Breakfast Bars (from chocolateandzucchini.com) and then making some Thanksgiving-ish food. We'll see...
