training went fantabulously... I got to play with echinoderms, woot woot, and see a sea star pulling a mussel apart... looks like I'll get to work it as an aquarist volunteer, which is excellent. plus the head aquarist guy said he sometimes takes volunteers out to do collecting on the bay, so that would be uber cool. also, it's like right on the beach, so if I get breaks, woot woot, know where I'll be.

going to go to the JC once I pick up the sister unit. hopefully they won't be stupid.
