I have to TA a thrid-year lab in two hours. Shrooms would definitely make it a zillion times more interesting and make the time fly.

Now I wish I had a Freakin' Fruit Salad.

That's what you get for eating fruit. If it has been a Ding Dong it wouldn't have mattered.

I get to spend the day comparing a spreadheet and a database full of info about albums nobody will ever hear.

A supertanker full of ibogaine piloted by naked amazons couldn't make this interesting.

It wasn't a nice fruit salad, I hope?

mmmmm floor fruit

I actually contemplated eating it for a split second, then I remembered I work in a research lab and the floor is probably the last thing that should ever go near my mouth.

Yeah, it might just work if it weren't for the incessant giggling and the whole pupils-devouring-your eyes thing. Also, I'd imagine it'd actually seem about three times as long... hallucinogenics never seem apt at manipulating the sense of time in the way you'd intended.

That'd make a kind of funky (fruit? arrr) salad too, unless they were fresh... at which point you would have to ingest roughly over an ounce worth due to 92% of their content being comprised of water weight.

Good thing you have lab access!

Sorry to hear about your lunch, at least you lost it before you ate it rather than after!

Nein, nein! No no, no, nooooo, goml! - Lab floor. LAB floor. *squeals in terror*

My Rx: after work, put the lime in the coconut, and drink them both up.

Ahaaa haa haaa!

Hm, that calls for a loud DAMMIT!

I hate it when that happens, LunaticFringe.

I dropped the F-bomb instead. I have no idea if it was loud or if people heard.

But! During my lab today, my students went out for snacks in one of the incubation steps and brought me back a chocolate bar. So that was nice.

mmmm. incubated chocolate. :)
