Girls' Night!

There aren't many ladies in our department, but there are a few of us, and we stick together. And sometimes we branch out and make friends with other scientists, and occasionally (gasp!) even humanities majors! ;) We had Girls' Night tonight at my place, and it involved some lounging in the pool, a walk around the corner for the yummiest sandwiches in town, pink beverages, the Olympics on TV (go Shawn and Nastia!), and Catchphrase. And of course we talked about boys. ;) Signs of success:

Successful Girls' Night

And everyone home to go to bed by midnight, because, after all, we are still nerds who have to work in the morning. ;) Buona notte!

  1. Ha, ha! I'm a nerd too... the older we get, the more sleep we need. : )

  2. Looks like fun! I really feel like a pink drink now - Nin was drinking pink champagne the other night. I think I'll have a pink gin as soon as the weather warms up!!

    I didn't realise Palmolive dish soap was so universal ... We used it in SA and then it turned up in NZ as well. I have that exact bottle on my sink today :-)

  3. No kidding about needing more sleep, Jess. I used to cruise on 3 or 4 hours, and that just kills me now! Good luck to you - here's hoping for a baby that starts sleeping through the night early. =)

    We made strawberry margaritas and they were very delicious. I didn't know that there was such thing as pink gin - do you buy it that way, or does it come from some type of mixer? And that's too funny about Palmolive - I wouldn't have guessed it was so universal either. It's good stuff, though. =)

  4. Wow, that sounds like so much fun!

    If it makes you feel any better, I'm usually in bed by 8 on Sunday nights... just trying to regroup for Monday. So sad.

  5. Love girls' night! Of course, I work with all women, but it is still fun "off" work! :)

    And after 6 years in the backcountry, I can't use anything but Dawn. In the Bulk size.
