You know you live with a scientist when...

Some people find loose change down the back of their couches. I find purple latex gloves and old copies of Chemical and Engineering News.

If I didn't know chemicallace and if you didn't mention Chemical and Engineering News this post would be so much more disturbing.

I've been known to leave circuits around the house... ;)

Kinky.

The purple ones are nitrile, which are better than latex because they're hypo-allergenic and don't make your skin feel funky...

cool! Maybe I can get Allyson to smuggle me another box of them. We used them when I worked at the cancer center, and they are my bedside gloves of choice, but mine are almost gone. Yes... :)

Blue nitrile has a better feel. Especially the dark blue!

But... purple!

You actually want the silver nitrile gloves designed for health care workers that are half as thick.

Wow, you're right. I didn't even know about those (they don't use them at the cancer center, oddly enough). Where do I get them?

Hey, sorry for leaving a random comment. You're just kinda hard to reach so this seems like a good way. The beach house has been reserved (it's huge and has all kinds of fun stuff) and so far we have 23 people RSVP'd. A link to a post about it is below. I'd really like you to come. Pretty please? :D

Sorry man, that's the same weekend as Allyson's 21st birthday, and we've got reservations of our own. I'm really sorry to miss it -- it sounds like it would have been a lot of fun, and I hope you'll let me know next time you throw a party.
