1. My cell phone is on the way! They're Fed Exing it to me and it should arrive tomorrow. Taking that fact into consideration as well as the fact that the hold up was due to my old cellular provider, I'm happy that I'm switching. Whee!

2. My zip drive at work is now a fancy paperweight. Yippee.

3. Scooter the Marketing Queen is driving me up a wall. "Can you summarize this" "Can you summarize this another way?" "You know that data you summarized for me? Can you write it up this way?" Shuddup Scooter.

4. The San Diego Zoo is hosting a lecture by Dr. Biruté Galdikas on BABY ORANGS IN BORNEO. I wanna go!

5. Yesterday afternoon I broke down and purchased some Claritin. Today I feel like me, instead of Zurga the Nasal Sewage Beast, which is pleasant. This morning as I drove past the Carlsbad Flower Fields in bloom, I was able to appreciate the brilliant colors instead of cursing the pollen. Behold the power of pharmaceuticals.

6. Work is already annoying me. I so need a new job.

4. are they going to be showing any baby orangs? cause then i'd want to go...if not, maybe not quite as much.

No, she'll be talking about her orphan orang program, progress they've made, plans for the future, etc.
But, but... it's Birute Galdikas! To quote: "Unique among scientific disciplines in that it's dominated by women, primatology has, in the public's mind, taken on a female face thanks to the celebrity of Jane Goodall, the late Dian Fossey and Birut� Galdikas. These three women -- the "trimates," as they are called -- are the most famous female proteges of the late anthropologist Louis Leakey."

I'd just love to hear her speak.

Barring other events, I probably will go. She's speaking on May 19 and 20 at the Zoo. What a wonderful opportunity to hear a researcher of her stature speak. Wow!
