Short postdoc

I'm doing a short postdoc in the lab of one of my thesis committee members. Dr. Tortue is finishing up her thesis work, and my own grad advisor moved to another school right as I finished my own Ph.D. Although I like my temporary lab and TempAdvisor quite a bit, I'm realizing that just because I have a Ph.D. in one lab and was productive (at least by the end) that doesn't mean I can produce anything in one year of a postdoc in a new lab. I wonder sometimes if part of this is precisely because of the temporary nature of this arrangement. I'm putting in a karma deposit today, but so far the interest has yet to appear.
