All of the best stuff that there is!

I think today might qualify as the worst day of work ever. In fact it's been a great start to my week I think. Here's what's going down, the HVAC system has been off line all day.

Now, I know there are worse problems in the world, but then I'm not trying to compare mine to those problems. I just feel like bitching. And feel very justified in fact. So in most buildings on a cool November day, like today for instance, if the HVAC system wasn't running it wouldn't be too bad. Probably a little bit cool, and definitely stuffy. Well this is not the case with my building. I share my lab with a bunch of equipment that is always running and generates a lot of heat. We have two varieties of freezers (-20 and -80 degree C) a couple of different refridgerator, as well as incubators (32 ands 37 degree C). So looking over at the thermostat on the wall I see that it's a not very pleasant 87 degree F in my lab right now.

That sucks.

I'm sweating while sitting at my desk doing nothing. I feel like a fat person eating. And I know I complained before about always spending my days in a 72 degree climate controlled box, well this is worse. Give me climate control over sweaty stuffy heat.

To top is off, I'm pretty tired and the heat is making it hard to stay awake. Poor me. Life's just not fair some times.
