Yay! My hat came in, and it actually fits alright. Still a tiny bit loose, but it's better than it being tight, right?
The only thing is that I hadn't realized the brim was curved upward. I was hoping for a flat-brimmed hat, but...oh, well. I'll just have to buy another one that's flat-brimmed to wear around all the time. Heh.
In my lab today, I found out that scientists are starting to go away from the Kingdom, Phylum, etc. taxonomy. Instead, they're using phylogenetic trees which just split off according to traits. I wonder how well that'd work, since it'd be difficult to put them all into one huge tree to have it make more sense instead of saying, "These trees are Protista. This other set is this..." Oh, well. Not sure how long it'd take to really switch over if they fully do. *shrugs*
