Just another Tuesday

Some of you may recognize today's comments because they look strangely familiar to yesterday's in that they're pretty unadventurous. I decided to relax again today because my left foot has been giving me some grief, and for good reason. Yesterday I managed to trip on the stairs to the subway ramp as we attempted to run and catch one of the trains. In the process my foot kicked against the metal stairs and hasn't been very happy about the situation since then. But I'm getting some ice in the cafeteria tonight and putting it up while I read a good book. Man, working full-time is exhausting!

Today things finally started to pick up work load wise. My first meeting was fine, but wasn't a brainstorming session like it was supposed to be. No one had done their brainstorming (except me) so they decided to postpone it until maybe Thursday or Friday. I told Chris, one of the group members that we've been working with, that Melissa and I had brainstormed the ideas as he had asked and wanted to know when we should plan to share those. So, he just asked me to email them to him and he would give me feedback. This afternoon, just before I left, he said the team had briefly been thinking along the same lines as the ideas I had sent him and that he liked the direction we took with them. So, we'll see what happens.

Poor Melissa has been ending up with a lot of the secretarial work that often gets dumped on interns. It's because she's the first person they see when they walk into our area and the way that her desk is set up, she faces them as they come in. My desk faces away from the entrance so they always get my back. She's going to talk to Alison, our internship supervisor about it tomorrow and we're going to try to clear up some things about hours and other details. So, that'll be good.

I started reading the DaVinci Code the other day and I must say, I'm a fan. So far its been good. I'm only like 50 pages in because I only have time to read on the subway, but it's enjoyable.

Well, I'm going to go get some ice and relax my foot for the rest of the night. I'll for sure have some pictures later this week. I just got an email from our faculty advisor out here and he got tickets for us all to go to the Yankee's game on Monday night against Texas. WOO HOO! Should be good.
