As far as I know, the root is legal in all states. Supplements ad extracts made of other parts of the plant may be illegal in soe paces - which is good because those cause liver failure and shouldn't be sold.

I have a final tomorrow and I'm trying to study viral replication (if I read about the biochemistry of DNA polymerase one more time...) but I'm totally out of it. Like "I only need 20% on this test to get a B, and I'm already enrolled in grad school that starts in 12 days" out of it.

- sense, + sense, reverse transcriptase, tegument, lysogeny, retrograde axonal transport... It's kind of logical, you just have to learn the vocab.

Have I mentioned that I'm a terrible student? As a TA I used to tutor students on good study habits (I even kept copies of a paper that showed everyone learns better from studying in silence, even people who claimed to learn better from studying with music), but I don't use any of them.

I'm a really bad studier.

I always have been. Give me hands on stuff and I'm fine, but just reading it in a book I will guarantee forget it.

So apparently I'm going to a wedding tomorrow. It should be nice to see family, but it's always kind of awkward because I feel like I just don't know them as well as I should. (My super shitty memory kicks in hard when it comes to matching names and faces. This is also why if you have me added to something outside of Sinfest I may have no idea who you actually are, matching names and other names is even harder.)

It's... not actually less insulting when it's true for a LOT of people. I feel like I should just use facebook to make flashcards and quiz myself before reuinions.

Also I kind of hate weddings. The ceremonies. The receptions are usually fun, but oh god awkwardly sitting in a church feeling like there are few places I belong less. Agh.

I stopped paying for parking at work.

+ Extra $75 a month.
+ More exercise, closest free parking is about 5 blocks from work
+ I get here earlier, more relaxing time
- It has rained every day since I made this decision.
- Constantly worried my car is being messed with

His job is here, Slater's 50 50.

Like, that looks like a pretty awesome restaurant.

I still don't get everyone's obsession with bacon though. Like, sure it is delicious but so are plenty of other things. Why bacon and not, for example, foie gras?

I got my first crop share in this week.

-Kale
-2 lb baby potatoes
-2 bulb onions
-Garlic scapes
-Radishes, about a pound. They were short on scapes so they threw these in for free.

I got to order what I wanted but might switch to farmers choice.

+ Crop share, yay!
+ I apparently like radishes!, yay
- We pick up in a local green store, figured I should shop around look at their other stuff. Holy cow, apparently local is a slang term for expensive as fuck. $5.95 per pound for a whole 5-6 lb chicken? $14.95 per pound ground beef?

Surely I must have been misunderstanding. No... no I wasn't. The $20 steak were understandable, but not the other stuff.

I get that it's a smaller local farm that sells this to the store and the store has to make a profit. But I can get my eggs for 1/3 what they were asking at Wegmans.
