After spending 8 and a half hours preparing and waiting for PCR machines/gels, I just found out I forgot to turn the gel on properly (there was a red light on, what more did it want!?). I now have a further wait of half an hour. Looks like I'll be able to go home at about 18:30. Long day - not used to that! The worst part is that the excess wait without the gel running may have caused my samples to evaporate and it may mean it won't work properly.
I naturally blame Willow as she was dreaming about fireworks or something last night and kept me awake scratching at the door and pacing. Think she's been at my valarian tea.
