tanarillSo maybe I ought to post.
I'm not sure what to post, aside from saying that in research-land we managed to get some green (!!) nanoparticles. Green is good - other people have managed to get them but whether they are gotten is kind of hit-or-miss, and we think we have figured out why. Consistently getting green is, like, the holy grail of this type of research. Next up: bovine hemoglobin (which is essentially the same chemical as human hemoglobin but, for obvious reasons, a gajillion times cheaper).
In ficland, I have been writing an xxxHolic AU, but it is veeeeeery slow. Mostly is is slow because finding primary sources on Edo Period, just pre-Meiji Restoration, Japan is very difficult. If anyone has such sources I would be quite grateful.
I'm also still writing stuff in Khemet, but it is very difficult. Set is an uncommunicative bastard, in addition to being a massive ball of Issues. He is probably going to get into a screaming argument with Horu about this. Ise is, of course, not helping; fortunately, other gods will . . .
And Carebear has gotten herself on a Rorschach trip, which means I went back and reread Watchmen so as to be able to RP with her. I had forgotten how depressing it was. I think my Dan is a little too intellectual, but Rorschach is pretty much all instinct, so they balance. 9I love the way his name is pronounced RAW-shock, it's so him.) I may be turning those into a fic, it depends on how she feels about it.
And in horrible ick news, I believe I have stopped responding as much to the steroid drugs. The abdominal pains are back,at least. I shall ask Dr. BZ about it when I go home for the weekend. I hope I'm okay :

Date: 2010-05-11 10:11 pm (UTC)I'm a total noob when it comes to Japan. What very little I know comes from the news and anime. And it's not a lot. Sorry I can't help there. X(
Hmm... I just watched the Watchmen movie, but I've never read the comics. I think I can see why Rorschach and Dan would work together.
I hope you're okay too! D:
