soooo i was making minipreps at 7 pm friday night, and i was supposed to wash my DNA with one buffer, centrifuge, and then add another buffer to dissolve the DNA in a solution. Sadly, I washed half of the minipreps with the dissolving buffer, and so half of my DNA was promptly sucked away through the vacuum manifold.
well anyway, as Tammy and I were making a gel for my remaining DNA, we discovered that we both like 80’s music! and so does Eric..so maybe we’ll have an 80’s party some time while we sort mutated fruit flies.

aww i’m sorry that happened! messing up after preparing everything is so frustrating! If it makes you feel better, I know a grad student who was walking with a flask with $6,000 worth of fluid in it and she TRIPPED. 80s music rocks!
