Things going down

Today is just a plain bad day. I made a stupid mistake by using the wrong antibiotics for my cell culture. As a result, at the end of the day there were no cells growing. It was such a waste of the precious time. And the mistake was kind of embarrassing. It's not a mistake that a person who has worked in a lab before should make. Maybe I was too eager for results that I kind of rushed my way without much thinking. After Lena pointed out the mistake I really intended to dig a hole for myself. Too bad the ground was so hard that I couldn't actually do it. In the future I probably need to give the right mindfulness.
