The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Only if you pronounce it right though.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Gold star for being the first person to go there.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Fuck. I screwed up the pagination of that verdammt journal again. That wretched thing has been the bane of my life for a year now. At least this time it's a gap and not an overlap. I told them from the start the software needed a way to check that pagination matched sequence numbers, but no. And I would rather it hadn't been me who proved me right. My boss has been fairly calm and supportive, but she hasn't talked to her boss yet.

I *so* feel your pain. (Pagination is my responsibility here.)

Not quite the same thing, but -- have I told the story about how we had a run of hardcover textbooks printed...with NOTHING printed on the spine??? We even got a cover spread color proof from the printer, and we all looked at it, and not one of us twigged to the fact that there was NOTHING ON THE SPINE.

All the textbooks had to be sent back to the printer, stripped of the covers, new hardcovers reprinted, and re-bound.

Oh, yeah.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Ouch, Teppy.
