dear diary: working on week's assignment, and discussed heterocysts with another researcher.

 schoolwork today was mostly reading the ToxTutor that we have been assigned (at a NIH site)...
had to take a break when Tony found a TV channel that was playing "Doc Martin" (i nearly leapt from the couch)...

tonight i was excited to receive a note from a Researcher at RG, answering my question about the heterocyst of Anabeana that i had taken a foto of (on the microscope)... i have noticed a discoloration and wondered if it had something to do with the ionization of water that is adjacent to the heterocyst (unattached to the vegetative cells)... we both guess that this is a refraction of the light and the extra thick cell walls (and all that extra lipid)...

no constitutional or leg/arm exercises tonight.. i am trying to rotate the leg-thrust nights with my "walking"-days...
time to rest now.
