Ghoulies October: GHOULIE CRUSHERS! (Page 10)

It was like getting Christmas presents already

That's too bad, but it's not over yet. Hopefully no other candidates have three of the three things that he was looking for. Did he mention what the third thing was?

What type of position are you looking for? Are there other opportunities in your area at the moment?

Good luck either way! New opportunities will arise if this one doesn't work out, but let's hope that it does.

Hopefully your situation works out too! I thought to share here because I tend to keep my problems to myself around the house since both of my parents recently got laid off. It's nice to talk about it sometimes. Thanks for listening!

Let me make the rough draft a little prettier first and I will send it your way. It's REALLY rough right now.

My dream is to complete my masters + PhD in Kinesiology and be a professor... but I am from the lower-middle socioeconomic position on the ladder and it probably won't be possible. I like to believe that I will have career success soon so that I can get my masters though.

Good luck with your research. What are you researching?

Awsome! :D

Looks like no one's around. I have to get headed offline anyway because husband has noticed my computer distracted absence the past couple of nights... So glad for that!!

Oh, and I went to three Halloween stores to get accessories for my pirate outfit. I bought a hat, a giant sword (envy?), and fishnet stockings with a skull on the band!

How are everyone else's Halloween costumes coming along (for those of you participating)? Pictures are in order, this is an October challenge!

I was on the phone with my SIL.....multiple issues with my mother......sigh......

I was so preoccupied with work I didn't even notice!

Awesome! Happy day indeed!

That's awesome!! Congrats!! 

Well good luck with all of that - if you stick with it I'm sure things will work out, they have a way of doing so if you want something badly enough....and definitely send it through when you have prettied it up a bit!

I'm a mucosal immunologist/microbiologist. Currently mainly getting paid to research Burkholderia pseudomallei (obscure bacteria but causes nasty disease with 80% mortality rate so high in defence priorities..) but I have side projects in Neisseria meningitidis and really want to get back to that fulltime - I did my PhD looking at the role of salivary antibodies in prevention of infection, worked for a few years after that looking at cervical antibodies in defence from HIV.....cervical immunology is really interesting, I just didn't lfall in love with working on HIV.
As an interesting aside, I am also about to take over a colleagues project on resistance training in women who have undergone radiation and/or chemo for breast cancer - cancer is out of my field but the project is excellent and very interesting.

Rachel,
Have you ever met Jen (Artemis) here in the forums?  She's working on her PhD....due to get it this spring I think, studying pulmonary hypertension.  You science nerds (said in love) need tostick together

No, I haven't met her yet, but I've not been too active to date...I will keep an eye out for her. I love being a science nerd!

Ok, back to work I go....!

Yeah!!!!!  That is a happy day!

Busy toppage

Just dropped by to see how things were going, been hectic at work today so doesn't look like I'll get on here much today

Well congrats on busy toppage

Just under a 9 miler in the books tonight. Just another body blow to the Ghoulies. I know they are staggering at this point and about to fall. When they go down, they won't get back up!

Great job!!! Dang that's a long run.

I'm not doing so hot today but I have to remember recovery is not always linear and overall it's getting much better. I told you guys I have chikungunya, right? This is not news? My brain is fuzzy and I keep forgetting who I've told or not.

Thanks, hey congrats on 20,000 posts. Dang you need a hobby

Hey only two more posts for me to hit the magical 7100

And for my 7100 post I would like to accept this award and thank all those who helped me on my journey to the elusive 7100 posts, what a magical number it is

hahahah thanks and I did call out the Crushers in my post!

Congrats on 7100 ... I don't know why ... that raelly is a cool number. You gonna get a custom title?

This makes me teh sadnezz but good luck with your work.

I charge forth, lonesome Mafiosa, with our Crushing.

I'll even try to get out for a bike ride or walk today.

I missed that in the flurry of postings I'm afraid. I knew you were under the weather but missed the specifics - speedy recovery!
