Indoor weather phenomena and other shenanigans

 science, no doubt about it. 
Science is fun. And exciting. And surprising. And humbling. And it can be a bit magical, too.



SOTD: The Moody Bues - Tuesday Afternoon. Because there's nothing better than a bit of magic lab fog on a day like this...

But, honestly, sticking around the lab for endless hours can mess with your brain. Rational thoughts become more and more tangled around fuzzy ideas and you slowly start to go crazy. 


When THAT moment arrives, you absolutely need to unwind. Coffee usually saves the IQ, but sometimes you just can not leave the bench to go get yourself a steaming cup of brown lifejuice with just the perfect dash of milk in it. YUM! 
When that happens, alternative unwinding techniques NEED to kick in...





… enter: MAKING FOOOOOOOOOG!!!

Woo-hoo!

Simple, fun and really cold. Just pour water over dry ice. But, please, make sure NOT to toss the dry ice chips directly into the sink or drain, because THAT might make your drain pipes crack (=worst case scenario) or just block your drain for hours due to a chunk of superchilled ice forming in the drain (=most annoying case scenario). 

Stay entertained.
