Oh, so you want accuracy when I'm taking the piss.
Your piss was inaccurate!
Did a watery tart throw a sword at you recently?
No.

I am down with DMB and all his cuties.
Pffft. Strumdudes.
Just print out the ones that call you brilliant. (I do regret deleting a message from the mondoboss commending me on something I did. Cause I coulod use that, you know?)
I keep a file. Really. I spend too much time in there, too. And, yet, don't really think I'm brilliant.
Timelies all!
Going to see Tanglefoot(a Canadian band that does Celticish folk rock. Very high energy) in concert tonight.
I'm prone to delete praise. Mainly because I have 2K + messages and I usually just save the stuff that documents work tasks or problems.
I'm having a very strange dinner. Shredded cabbage & tuna in a oriental chicken salad dressing, maple marinated pork thing and ranch wheat thins. I didn't feel like turning on the oven. It isn't too warm inside, but...still no a/c!

That's why you need a "good stuff" paper file. Just print it out and throw it in there.
Yup. Of course, since I realized that, all the good stuff has been verbal. Or it is covered in my performance evals, so I do have it on hand.
Two pathetic school questions: 1) I have a project I already did a powerpoint on. Now I have to do an "executive summary" to hand in. It should be pretty much the powerpoint, made into sentences, right? 2) I just realized I slightly misinterpreted some of my data, but the prof won't know. Can I just stick with the misinterpretation, or is that Just Wrong?
yeah, I rarely get praise via email. Most of teh stuff I have been deleting is crap about meetings from months ago and outdated data that I emailed to people months and months ago.

yes, but shorter.

well, if the assignment is to summarize the powerpoint, then summarize with the misinterpreted data. add a footnote if you feel better.
