An opening of sorts

Hello, all :).

So here we are in 2008! It's going to be a busy year for me, but a good one I hope. Giftmacher and I are getting married in the summer, which is very exciting! Preparations are going pretty well for that, and we've just started thinking about arranging our honeymoon in Thailand.
I have lots of work to do in the lab, but I'm feeling a bit more positive about it than I was. You never know, this might be the year I manage to get a first-author paper published! Heh, well I can dream, eh?
This will be our last full year in our lovely city, sadly, as the hunt for work will probably drag us out next year, but I'm going to enjoy it while we're here. I can't wait for spring and some sunshine at last. Rain is so last season!
