Welcome back to the IZ. The work was piled up! And I can't believe how much has changed. Almost every report I had automated before I left had now changed and was no longer being used or has been web based by Pete..haha. All that work and 2 weeks later it's gone. They're still used for backup. I joked that I may as well go back on R&R since they took most of my reports away and Jim piped up from his desk "Don't even think about it! I have plenty for you to work on..when you have 20 - stop by my desk!" I ended up working all day on reports and never did get to starting my SIGIR. First moment I had to start that was a few minutes ago. Good thing I have it mostly automated! :D

Mike and I were offered new rooms yesterday. There's a set that was used previously by a married couple..so the beds are already put together. Apparently it's easier for us to completely change locations than for us to just move our furniture..whatever! :) Mike wants to move anyway because his room smells like sewer...they plumbing isn't the greatest here..his toilet leaks when you flush it. Eww. So we'll be spending the evening moving. I hope that this room doesn't have any problems! I liked my room! I tell ya - the sacrifices I make ;)

Mike's desk was moved while we were gone. They did a lot of rearraning of people actually. I liked it better with him next to me. Seems wierd with him moved. I guess I shouldn't complain. He didnt go far - just behind us! It's just different! :D

Well gotta go so I can get something done before we leave!
