Silly - she'd be wearing bloomers and a concert t-shirt. Didn't you read her Bust article?
I'm going to see to Wesley, see if he's still whimpering.

If they had a problem with the book they wouldn't just be sending you edits. They'd be asking for a rewrite.
Hec is wise and quite right. Now get out from under the desk-- I'ma hiding under there.

I wish there was someone to edit my work. (Boring technical writing but still...don't tell me after the fact that there's something wrong when you were the one who was supposed to have edited it!!!)

Okay. I'm good with that. Especially since your LJ icon just made me giggle like a little girl.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Why is it so hard to get these people at work to write out short, step-by-step instructions of what they're asking for? It's like pulling teeth.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

It's almost like they think it's a personal insult that I'm asking them to think linearly.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
The thing that makes me cringe when I edit using Track Changes is that moving something makes it show up TWICE in red -- once crossed out, and again in the new spot. I always have to do a disclaimer up front that says it looks bad, but is mostly stuff moved around.
I could be wrong, but no. Unless the contract itself specifies a difference.
OK, cool. My boss was afraid she was crazy, after a meeting with the Big Boss.
