During the morning meeting we went over a few more abstracts and Matt asked some trick questions about them. We briefly talked about the symposium tomorrow but unfortunately, I can't go. Paige and I are getting through the data Roger gave us and we have decent results for them. They're almost presentation worthy. I've been working on the Ambrosiana/Jubilees section, mostly the introductory slides until we decide what we want to put in. We're waiting for a response from Todd Hanneken, the guy who gave us the project, to tell us the significance of the palimpsest and if there is any particular reason he wants us to work on it. I got a short answer from Roger and it was "because Todd wanted you to" but I know that there is more behind it. Paige has some really good results and I think that our presentation will be mostly about the Selden Map, there's a lot more information about it and we were asked to do less with the Jubilees. Matt came in and we had a solid conversation about town population and that general topic with David Lewis. There were other topics but none of them significant. We finally finished looking at all of the images and scanning everything so westarted gathering images to put in the presentation. I am truly thrilled to start tomorrow.
The morning meeting wasn't too bad today, we finished up the abstracts and had a good chat. Paige and I had the most eventful morning we've ever had, we got to go to all four floors and visit all of the labs trying to find people. We also talked to Ryan to let him know how disappointed we were with him but he's fine. We've been putting the final touches on the presentation and it looks pretty good. Peter, Ashley, and Tristan came up for lunch and we analyzed life's deepest mysteries like if Peter's shorts were shorter than mine, which they definitely were, and each others social media pages. It was a pretty good lunch. I've been doing a lot of reading today in the absence of work. Going back and forth between a dry book and a semi-dry presentation is absolutely exhilarating. Paige has been making a lot of small changes to the slides and I'm good with that, they aren't major and she's right to do most of them so I'm glad she sees some of these
