In stitches

I plumb forgot to write my group blog critique! It happens...

Sorry for the 10,324 url change but I think this one is for good! Even though I want a majority of the posts on this blog to reflect some scientific content the name "fromthelabbench" is too dry. I'm one of the few opting out of killing their blog.

Artist Aubrey Longley-Cook does massively cool stuff with thread over at spoolspectrum.blogspot.com. I cannot wrap my head around some of his pieces.

I'm a pretty big sucker for anatomically themed anything and with that, this bat would be up on my bedroom wall in 2.5 seconds flat.

Bat country!

I'm into crafty things (my blogroll of craft-minded people is growing) especially embroidery. My problem is looking at way too many amazing embroidered pieces online instead of creating my own. The internet is making me restless. I can only scroll through so many pages on tumblr before my brain feels like it's rotting. My desk is overflowing with sharpies, stickers and other oddities. Poor Rosa's terrarium is lost in the clutter.

Finals are coming up and I need to set my priorities straight. Organic Chemistry as a Second Language will be read, internalized and understood by the 26th. I have yet to start my final reflection paper on blogging and my biochemistry exam falls on the 20th. Stepping away from the computer is a mandatory step I have to take (nearly impossible -- like trying to keep an electron away from an atom's nucleus).

A final thought, cupcakes sound pretty delectable right now.
