Closing in on the prize...
Jun. 16th, 2005 04:04 amMy progress on the big translation job can be represented as follows:
As can be seen, I am within a stone's throw of finishing translation work on the job, but quite a way from delivering it all. The day is, however, young (from the business-hours perspective).
These past few days, I've been going back to the hotel to work on the translation after my shift is over, but my marching orders for this assignment also include getting some to-dos nailed, along the lines of getting my badging paperwork in order (again), taking the annual IT security quiz (again), and doing the appropriate reviews to keep current whatever else needs currency. So, I guess I'll have to make an appearance at the office, probably today, to avoid any unpleasant surprises.
It's looking more and more as if Galina and I will be going back to Colorado in separate vehicles: she'll be driving the Ford, while I'll likely be in a rented truck with the rest of our stuff, culled from the Pearland house and other places. (The alternative is to abandon the stuff, which is not our style, or to keep paying to store it, which makes the prospect of renting a truck more palatable over the long run.)
Cheers...
