The Baron is Back!

Sorry I didn't post forever...I've been really busy ever since last week, and I haven't had much time on my computer. I did manage to get most of my crap packed in time so I could move out, which was good. Then I finally got home, where I immediately discovered I had a hundred things to do. In particular, I've started by summer internship with Bechtel. It's been pretty fun, actually. The people I work with are fairly cool (well, for engineers at any rate :), and so it is going quite well. I spent most of the last four days getting oriented and also typing in data records. That doesn't sound very exciting, but one must recall that for a while I wanted to be a librarian so I could play with data records (there were other reasons too, but nevermind). Next week I expect I will start doing more "exciting" stuff. Today we actually went out to the park and got experience using our fancy GPS units, so in the near future us interns will be allowed to go out to the Hanford site to map stuff. Eventually I will be remapping an old road for something. Also, I will be working on making a program in Microsoft Access, something I've never tried to do before. I'm also hoping that they'll let me go to the WSU Tri-City library to do locate some old documents for them, but we'll see. Anyway, my summer is going well so far. The fact that I have a job I like that also pays twice as much as what most of my friends are making is just icing on the cake.
