In other news, Susan Daniel is our colloquium speaker next week. That's better than the past two weeks, which were students and one of our own professors. I'll say hi for you if you want.

Fluid mechanics is awesome
when taught by an Italian professor named Gianluca Iaccarino. He started his first lecture by writing the phonetic spelling of his name on the board. Nice. Seriously though, it's still hard (Ariel, you reading this), but things actually make sense, and the drawings don't look like they were made by a five year old. The question still remains, why am I taking fluids as an elective when I have to take transport next quarter? Poor decision.

I know I just posted but...
...my boss just scheduled a meeting next week to go over a SWOT analysis for the process engineering team at my refinery!!! If only Center were here to say "I told you so." That's it, have a good weekend everyone =)

These are a few of my favorite things
I thought I would take this time to fill you all in on my favorites at PSR:
Favorite wipe board (some people say white board…but I think wipe makes more sense):
This one has to go to the one that we call our attention to every morning in our production alignment meeting for our HSSE (EH&S everywhere else) summary. Today it told us that we have been going 218 days sending everyone home safely, and 7 days respecting or environment.
Favorite part of the day:
When we discuss all of the safety issues and injuries of the previous day (I promise I’m not an awful person…). These injuries include when an operator didn’t notice a step down and twisted his ankle, when a contractor threw a wrench to his coworker an accidentally chipped his tooth, when a worker got stung by a bee, and my personal favorite, when a contractor slipped on the steps and skinned his knee.
Favorite part of the week:
Every Wed morning when we discuss crack spreads.
Favorite Operator:
BARRY POTTER, that’s right.
Okay that’s all…clearly I am working REALLY hard. I hope you are all doing well and I miss you all like crazy! Less than 100 days until Jan 16th…that’s right, I counted.
