# MOVING TO WHINGECON 5


Spent some time separating a compound mixture for someone at work so I could take photos of it for a paper. Did all the shoppery and everything and was very happy. Then, an hour later, he decides I can't use it.
Then, the conference I really wanted to go on - a really important one for making contacts in my field and one I had agreed with my supervisor before starting here - I've been told I can't go as I haven't made anything interesting enough in the last few months to warrant a poster presentation. Then, I find out that it's also partly funding. However, I looked at the conference site today and lo-and-fucking-behold, my supervisor's on there as a keynote speaker.

Gay.
But let's just say that the two phases are insoluble in everything unless you destroy them. Bit of a speciality of mine, separating awkward mixtures. Should be a paper out in Dalton in the next few months on it.

# :(
I hadn't heard of Dalton. Guess I don't read enough chemistry journals :)

# I think you mean
"Key Cunt" as opposed to "key speaker".

WHINGECON1 results in objects on the other side of the room instantly igniting from the radiation pressure of my rage. Only activated once - when they kicked my Mrs out of the states.
