• Make progress on article manuscript #2 w colleague - ball is in colleague's court

I submitted paper #3 today. Hoping to get paper #2 out the door tomorrow or, more likely, on Friday.

Not research, but I need to make a huge push today--have to get sixty-odd papers marked by four. Ugh.

Oof, done.

Back in the saddle.  520 words today.

I also found my classrooms.

Finally back to work today. Will translate a page or so and work on my revisions.

Two pages and ~350 words. It's not much, but it's a start.

EDIT: I also went over the proofs for an article.

Bit of translating, but then it's a reading day. Would like to read my quota plus a goodly chunk of my friend's chapter.

Did that. Finished and sent back my friend's chapter.

[Parasaurolophus]

Not likely to manage to do much today. Maybe a little translating.

Managed a few pages. Only twentyish to go, plus checking my co-translator's.

[Parasaurolophus]

I'll translate a bit, then work on my revisions, then read my quota.

I haven't done a good job of posting it here, but I wrote each day this week.  Hit 2,620 words on the week.

Maybe next week I'll have a computer in my office and can update daily.  Maybe not.

Doubled my quota.

Probably just translating a few pages today.
