DAY NINE

It seems it is gonna be after midnight that I write to my BLOG always. Tonight again!!!
I have just come home from a midnight snowy walk in the neighbourhood. There is a small hill from which one could look down on Vienna quite fine if there were no tress. Still, it was nice and quiet.
Today some surprising things happened. First, all of a sudden I was allowed to finally start pipetting in the lab. I was helping Stefan our postdoc cloning some genes. I performed a reverse transcription reaction and a PCR. Some basic standard techniques, but good for me having been absent from the lab for a year now.
Then bad news came to my ears. After we first thought we might move to our new building December 9 this moving was now posponed to mid-January. This is really bad for I wanted to start my actual PhD-project Januar 1.
Finally in the afternoon my friend Alessandro called and asked for my help to visit him to the hospital. He injured his foot in the football match yesterday evening and was exmained and X-rayed today. In the end he got "Krücken" and was prescribed Heparin injections which he had to inject himself. This was a drama...

Well then, now I am totally tired, my feet hurt after the football and there is working again tomorrow.

Good night!
