For what dreams may come when we shuffle off this mortal coil must give us pause

Ouch. :) I got into a car accident this weekend, and my neck is *killing* me. I never understood the big deal about whiplash, but I will definitely not make fun of people who have it ever again. :)

Over the last few months, I've been doing some really heavy thinking about me, and lab work, and how well they really go together (answer: not very), and whether I should stick it out for the next three and a half years or cut and run now, while I still have my sanity and my social skills. You need a PhD to do a lot of things in science, so I'll probably finish the degree, but I'll be damned if I go into labwork full-time, with postdocs and academia and the like. Absolutely no frickin way. This may be a typical mid-grad-school crisis, but I don't think so. I think I'm just finally figuring out what I want, or at least, what I don't.

And, in the Dland tradition of rapidal and her white guys... I love Canadian boys. :)
