It didn't matter that it was practically boiling here in Brazil - some of life's pleasures were enjoyable no matter the weather. She grabbed the stapler, attempting to staple the journals together. The first try revealed a problem - some asshole had left the stapler jammed. [color=99ccff]"Oh, hey there...Um...Sorry, I'm bad with names. But...It has something to do with the Periodic Table...And thermometers...Mercury!"[/color] Edwina said, awkwardly wrestling with the stapler. She managed to get it fixed and reloaded it with a fresh row of staples, then stapling her article packets together and sliding them into her bag. [color=99ccff]"I'm good, just needed to get some articles printed off. My P.I. wants me to present this week on Dr. Cooper's research on dark matter,"[/color] Edwina explained. She didn't expect Mercury to know anything she was talking about - no one ever did in the history department. It didn't matter what university - the historians and the essayists and everyone in a non-STEM profession suddenly forgot the basic principles of math and science. [color=99ccff]"How're you doing? Classes going okay? I've got an undergrad I'm mentoring - Vido Sanchez - think he's in your class?"[/color]
