A Sad Loss

I came home today to find that the first little green tomato on my tomato plant had disappeared. Vanished! Some sort of critter, no doubt, but this doesn't bode well for the rest of the crop. It was nowhere near ripe.

There are other flowers higher up the plant, so maybe whatever it was won't be able to reach. Sigh.

As karmic balance, Jorge sent out the diversity paper to Molecular Microbiology today, so that's good. Hopefully it'll go through all right. That'll be two papers - only one or two more and then I get to graduate!
