Phlegm in guys' throats

I wonder what makes guys produce more phlegm in their throats during the night so that in the morning when they wake up they have to make horrendous gurgling retch-inducing noises to clear it. gross. and over dramatic. i mean, does it really take that much effort to clear your throat? like you have to kill a cow to get air flowing through that tube again? geez man. gross. Just one of those things that irks me. Maybe all loud noises irk me.

Anyway, our lab's finally moving into the new building. It looks real grand from the outside, and much more spacious on the inside than what we currently have. In fact I think I have an entire bench to myself. woot! Moving time's always quite a relaxing time for a lab because experiments are on hold and the whole lab works together to decon and bubblewrap all our stuff. Feels great functioning as a team for a change. With all that talk of collaboration between labs/lab members/institutes, the real bulk of research work is still done alone. Sure there's plenty of interaction during discussions and in-between time, but in the end, your project is your responsibility alone. Unlike our current task. While we're moving, everyone works towards the same goal. To get our stuff over safely so we can start work again.

I don't know how to make my blog interesting. I'll think harder.
