tutoring: nobody showed up. I got a very rough first draft of my first CLD (Commercial, Legal and Diplomatic Translation) assignment done, and came home to an e-mail from the tutoring director asking me if we couldn't move my Wednesday hours up to 12-4 instead of 1-5. Which suits me fine, so I said Why not?
snow: still here. Most of my walk to campus is over questionably cleared sidewalks, and all the snow has been kicked around and mixed with sand so much that it's all loose and mostly slippery. Every time I take a step, I go sideways before I go forward. Hard on the ankles, that.
taxes: hit a snag. I have to call the financial aid office about why the "federal tax withheld" box on the W2 is completely blank and doesn't even have 0.00 in it.
lunch: almond butter and blueberry jam sandwich. A bit of a mess, but tasty. Due to only buying bread and milk last week due to snow, there's nothing much else to eat around here.
case study: PDF files have been converted to RTF files, so Trados or SDLX will actually talk to them. Still waiting for VirtualPC so I can play with SDLX demo version at home. Terminology will have to be done in Trados, I think. Starting that this week.
