Does anybody recognize which movie that line is from? If you guessed "Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead," you win the prize (well, the imaginary prize anyway). In this movie, whenever Rose, Sue Ellen (played by Christina Applegate)'s boss, is on the phone and needs something from her, she's supposed to say "I'm right on top of that, Rose!" regardless of whether she is or not.
Well, that's how I feel. There are so many things that I'm trying to get done in lab right now, and my priority list is, shall we say, slightly different from my PI's. She's worried about getting data for the addendum to her grant, and I'm worried about getting data for my poster and talk together (I'm presenting at a conference in TWO weeks!). To be honest, I could care less about her grant. I have to get up and talk in front of people, damn it! Obviously, that is more important, right?!
