Oh man. This has been a killer week. I'm soooo tired. Luckily it's Thursday. Unluckily, Thursday is my busiest day, and Friday is going to be a solid day of fixing the mistakes I made in lab Wednesday. So the weekend is kind of far away at this point.
Midterm today. *sigh* Oh well. I feel sort of ready. I should go over the material once more before I leave. I should make some sort of lunchthing before I leave....
I've decided that knitting is a bad thing. All I want to do is hide in my bedroom, listen to NPR, and knit things. I want to work on the shawl, but it takes me ten minutes to knit one row now, and I just don't have an hour to devote to knitting six rows. And the wire's fun to knit, but it really needs to be done in ten-minute chunks throughout a day so that my hands don't get too sore, and I really don't have all that many ten-minute chunks. I usually fill them with reading papers, anyway.
Okay. I'm done complaining for now. I'm gonna go drink some coffee and review splicing again.
Quick! Which two proteins compose the Commitment Complex, and where in the pre-mRNA transcript do they bind?
a) U1 and U3, binding the 5' ss and 3' ss
b) BBP and U2AF, binding the branch point
c) U2 and U4, binding the branch point and 3' ss
d) U and me, who love each other very much, binding the bottom of a marriage contract.
(I shouldn't update lj before I have coffee.)
(Also, I'm going to go upload some more coffee icons, because mine are insufficient.)
