A shrimp! On a treadmill!

He looks about miserable as I do while on the treadmill.

In other news, I am now famous. I got to sit on stage during the taping of Hardball with Chris Matthews yesterday. I was behind John McCain, but unfortunately like in the fourth row, so I got cut off most of the time. Oh well. At least I didn't have to worry about being caught picking my nose on national TV.

This only barely tops the time I got on the local news in Champaign-Urbana during a grown-up Easter egg hunt.

I have to note that only a nerdy grad student like myself would learn her school's fight song at the taping of a political news show.

I'm jealous that you made it to Hardball with Chris Matthews. I was working somewhere in the middle of nowhere Iowa.

I love that you learned the school fight song while there!

What they didn't show was how they motivated the shrimp to move like that. On the back wall of the aquarium was a picture of Chris Matthews' face.

Oh snap.
