Sorry I haven't written much lately. Between my internship, some travelling, and a heat wave that's downright brutal for this part of the country, I haven't had much time or inclination. Rest assured I've been running lots of calls and learning a lot, and as soon as it cools down a bit and my brain begins working again, I'll try and post more regularly.
However! I do have an account of my latest shift ... in a slightly different form.
