When I type as I think, then go back and read what I wrote later, I find that I am skipping whole words which are fairly important to the sentences I am typing.

WS, I do the same thing. And almost every time I leave a word out, it's a "negating" word. Like, I'll leave out a "not" or a "don't". I have no idea why. I have to proofread everything I write to make sure I haven't left out a word that radically changes the meaning.

Why aren't drip pans coated in Teflon?

My office - open plan, of course - has huge windows that face south. I spend much of my time wearing yellow tinted glasses ... which I can't see particularly well in, so I have to take them off when I need to see fine details. Of course, we're not allowed to close the blinds ... that would make the office look messy, since all the other ones are open.

I pray for rain ... or at least clouds.

I think I may actually be sick. The head ache this weekend I though was all wind and weather related, but I have had drippy nose and sneezing for 2 days. Yesterday I took a cd and sinus med, today I took allergy meds, I think Genoese is actually better today, but my whole body feels tired and I have almost started crying multiple times. And now chills, just randomly every few minutes.

Oh ugh, Dana.

That does sound sick, msbelle.

Omg look at all that crazy auto correct!

To clarify, I wish they had laid me off instead because I'm already looking for another job. But it does suck that my coworker got laid off. She worked very hard and was great at her job.

Cd=cold Genoese=the nose

Layoffs suck

Dana, ugh, layoffs are terrible.

msbelle, alas, it sounds like you're actually sick.

We have blinds on all our windows--which also face south. They are in regular use. It's actually worse on light cloudy days, because the light is diffuse. On cloudless days, if the sun isn't shining directly in, it's wonderful. As the year progresses, the sun is shifting enough to not shine directly in, except for the Officehenge on the west and east ends of the building.
