Passport etc

[nwhiker]

Passport applied for.

Kids all on board for joining us for some bits of trip.

Map of Scotland, Great Britain, and Iceland acquired.

Panic setting in.

Also panic re thesis. OMG, so much frustration with Word. Fuuuuck.

I wrote a MS thesis in astrophysics in freaking TeX. Word should be a piece of cake. IT IS NOT.

Perry posted a photo a complicated pathway in cancer to our family group chat (including my sibs etc), with a description a per the prof, though the sentence quip is him.

Sentence of the day:
The intracellular signaling depicted (left) within the tumor microenvironment is not static but instead changes during tumor progression as a result of reciprocal signaling interactions between cancer cells of the parenchymal and stromal cells that convey the increasingly aggressive phenotypes that underlie growth, invasion, and metastatic dissemination.

My summary back at him: Translation of that paragraph: what is bad, gets worse. :P :)
