I finally finished my project for the January prospect meeting. I showed it to my boss, phil, and after he said it would be helpful and well done, I felt better considering I was deeply embarrassed with the week it took me to make 43 slides. I kept getting caught up in complicated mergers and for the first time I'm really trying to understand the power business. I think I'm getting there. I'm finally understanding the intricite balance of equity and power know-how that dominates the market. Phil and Rod seem really understanding of the my need to understand what I'm writing about and the lack of my trademark speed that results. Bonus, it's only 15 degrees, and as Mike said, a great day to sell natural gas.

ALso, I got my paycheck, and am earning a dollar more an hour than I though. It was certainly a delightful surprise.

I really really hope they hire me for the summer.
