I get to go back to Taylor soon! :)

Hopefully by this Thursday, I'll be packed up and driving down to Taylor. I'm so looking forward to getting back and seeing all my friends from there again. Especially Ann!

Work's been wrapping up well. Today, we tried running the program on a project that hadn't ever been nationalized before. It came up with translations for a lot of the words. Annette was really happy with how it worked, which counts for a lot, since she'll be the one using it the most. Tomorrow (Tuesday), I'll be preparing for my brownbag. Brownbags are lunch presentations wherein one employee gives a 45 min overview of some topic of interest to the other workers. I'll be giving one on how my program works, what it can/can't do, etc. It'll be my first 'real-world' speach, so that'll be intersting. I don't know how nervous I'll be, since speach class in college isn't very similar. It's a pretty low stress envrionment as far as audiences go, which is nice.

Off to bed for me
