good news, bad news

good news... in negotiations with the Army CRREL for a lunar regolith drill automation task, my budget was reduced, but only from $1.27M --> $1.15M over 4 years. Not nearly as bad as I'd braced-for.

bad news... the wonderfully competent folks at our in-house travel agency never sent me my travel itinerary for next week -- because they accidentally cancelled it. I have to rebook everything for Houston on Monday in the next 2 hours. Sigh...
