Friday morning, I practiced my dissection skills some more until John 
arrived.  I accompanied him, along with Dr. Miskevich, downstairs to observe 
how to use the confocal microscope and the computer program for the imaging 
(which is quite complex).  We had to leave when the alarms in the building 
went off.  Returning later, after the alarms were turned off, I then 
practiced the dissections some more until Dr. Miskevich helped me get 
started finishing the prepping of the culture to isolate the plasmid DNA, 
which I placed in the freezer for use on Monday.  The solution will not 
freeze due to the presence of isopropanol.
