A pet keeps reminding you of its existence. A plant, not so much.
Exactly.
Very convincing. Makes me completely want to put myself under government control. Please take me to where you can make me unconscious and naked.

I never call my dogs my "kids". They're very different things.
Wigglebutts is the most perfectest term ever for your dogs.

grrrr. I was working on cover letters on my dad's computer, but had to leave for a Dr. appt. He came back home and found my work, called me about it and I told him to leave it, just minimize it on the screen. He closed applications! Why? Why do that and especially after you call and ask? So frustrated with him. He sees himself as technologically savvy and he has no concept of how to function around a computer without shutting things down before doing anything else.
Now to re-write things.

Ugh. And cover letters are the worst part.

It's descriptive!
Cover letters are indeed the worst.

yes, they are. I am just telling myself that what I wrote before was not that good and I can do better. I know the 1st paragraph and have already re-written it. also saved.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Don't forget to mention the part where you are the nicest.

They have to wait for an interview to get that bit of knowledge.

I am just telling myself that what I wrote before was not that good and I can do better.
My second and third iterations are always better.
Years ago, while working on one of those groovy lunchbox Macs, I lost a 20 page paper. In toto. No backup.
I lay down on the floor and wept.
Then I got up and re-envisioned the paper. In the end, it was much, much better and garnered the best grade in the class. I'd have loved to get that victory withOUT the frustration first.

I do love my boss, but I think sometimes she is not the clearest of communicators. She asked if I could do something without changing a link. I say not really because it's a search list and the keywords we set up show in the link.
There's a bit of (I feel) attitude about knowing how search works. Other coworker emails a new URL which is apparently awesome.
So I said I thought we didn't want to change the link and I get back, "No, but if the answer was we can't do it without changing it, I need a new one."
Dude, an effective way to get that? Ask for it. I thought stuff was already in the world using the original link and that it couldn't be changed.
