It was pretty hot and dry in Utah today. Today we were wiring up our cameras and stuff in the test area. Not too unusual a thing, but I had like 6 guys looking over my shoulder the entire time. You know you're working on a government project when there is one person working and 6 people watching. What was a bit unnerving though was I was making cable that required some skill I didn't have. No worries though since I could tell pretty quickly that none of the other people did either, ha ha. Anyways, I was just glad when we fired up the power, the stuff worked. Man, that never happens! You have to at least run through the diagram two or three times to find what you did wrong. So I got much congrats from my audience. I'm just glad it was a good day. I sure don't like doing this long term travel stuff. I'm such a wimp cuz I've only been here three days. I also have to come back next week, too (sigh). I think what helps when you do travel is if you have coworkers you like to hang out with. I don't have that this time. Not that I dislike my coworkers that I'm here with, but they just seem to want to do their own thing. That's probably ok since I think they would just talk about work the whole time anyways. I think the most difficult thing about travel for work is that it's like you're at work for 24 hours a day. There really isn't any closure until you fly home. I know I could always tell my boss that I don't want to do it anymore, but I feel like this is something I should learn to deal with. Maybe it won't be a big deal after some time. I could be in worse places after all. Anyways, I wish life in Utah was more intersting to write about, but there really isn't much to say. Next week, I'll have to venture into Salt Lake City a bit.
