Lab meeting, again?

I just realized this morning that I have to give lab meeting on Wednesday.  Its not a huge deal but it just means I have to rearrange my day to set everything up.  Bleh.  Also, while I have gotten a lot of stuff done lately, it doesn't feel like enough.  It never does. 
The university had a bomb threat last night.  They have it set up so that we get text messeges in case of emergency.  I looked this morning and they have decided that it was a hoax, which is good. 
Matt and I don't really do anything big for Valentine's day.  Like last year we "celebrated" by going to Red Robin.  Its fun because all the high school kids are there too.  They're all dressed up and its just so cute.  We decided yesterday that we're going to step up our workout routine to everyday instead of every other day.  I think it should go well.  I am now able to run for half an hour without dying.  When we started about a month ago it was twenty minutes and then I was ready to pass out.  Yay exercise!

Go Heels! Boo dookies!

Tonight is the first of our basketball games against dook.  I'm excited about watching it on our TV.  Hopefully we'll make their ugly fans cry again.  That was fun. 
I've been listening to Michael Jackson all day today.  Matt and I saw an old "ripped from the headlines" Law and Order this weekend that was about a MJ type character. I couldn't get it out of my mind so I put my MJ playlist on my pud.  Now, I think that people should at some point stop blaming everything in their childhood for how they turned out.  The poor Jackson family though, they have a lot to blame.  Or really mostly just their dad.  Anyways, I always try and remember MJ as he was when I was a kid and in his fan club-- a black man that turned out the most awesome songs ever!  I still get all giddy when I hear "Another Part of Me".  It boggles my mind to this day that Matt didn't get to grow up seeing Captain Eo.  I have to find that on dvd.  Also on the MJ thought, my friend Mike was MJ for Halloween a couple of years ago and he said that a lot of his high school students didn't realize that MJ used to be a megastar for his music.  WTF!!!  Those kids' parents need to be fined for, I don't know, something.  Thats just wrong.  I digress.  So, take home message of today:  dook sucks and (old) MJ rocks.
