Laboratory Life

Saturday afternoon. It was raining like cats and dogs. Ran off from the car to get to the nearest entrance door. I was soaked when I got in. Turned on the computer right away and started culturing cells. I was in the mood for Chopin music. No one was there. Turned it on loud while doing work. Bone cells have a serene culture you know. I started the bacteria culture. Bacteria have a smelly culture you know. I ran up and down the stairs to get to necessary equipment. I didn't forget to look out the window once in a while. It turned hazy and foggy, but the rain had stopped. I wish I could go out for a smoke but the culture needed me here. Time passed for a while until I remembered that I should look out the window. The sun was going down. The sky had a foggy red and orange shadow. I wish I was out there walking between those trees with my dog but the culture still needed me. It is dark now. Pitch black, and I am going home to sleep.
