Angry author is still angry, demanding special snowflake treatment and what am I going to do about this.
This is the one whose article was published with an error? And he already knows a correction is going to be published? What else can you do? I mean *literally* what else can you do? Offer to fly him to your office so he can punch the person who made the error? Buy him a labradoodle?
Seriously, what else does he want from you, beyond a correction being published?

He wants someone to go back in time and prevent the error from happening? He wants all copies of the article with the error destroyed and everyone who saw the error having their minds erased?
Dr. Snowflake, I have a clue by 4 for you.
I go back to the dentist at noon today to get imprints for my permanent bridge. I know it is just impressions and no real "work" being done on my teeth, but I still don't wanna. Honestly, I'd like to crawl in bed and sleep for the next 48 hours.

I dunno, that sounds pretty reasonable.
So my new staff person started today -- yay! But come to find out, she got married last week and is changing her name, so now she needs new email and everything else name-based. (On the upside, I have to hope that the new husband is a citizen, which is why she is so sure she won't have anything to worry about when her current one-year visa expires...)
That seems like something that could be planned ahead for.

Ooh. Sign me up for that, too.
I have been slogging through work. Managed to submit a change of address with USPS and return signed forms and credit card authorization to move coordinator. And I bought plane tickets for DragonCon. I probably should grab some lunch before I forget.
I am TCBing today.
Vet appts scheduled
Fence estimate appt scheduled
Electrical inspection call in for appt
Credit cards paid
2 waiting work things done
Work invoices paid
HR filing done
Of course this is because I am pissed off at Mac and frustrated with my parents wrt Mac, but kinda hard to argue with the results. I may solve some giant world problem before the day is done.
I can no longer lounge around in bed for hours and hours because my back seizes up. Perhaps I can institute a program of lounging with breaks.
Note to self: Even if you need the exercise, do not agree to walk to lunch when the heat index is 100.
OH MY GOD PEOPLE NEED TO STOP GIVING ME THINGS TO DO I AM FULL UP NO MORE I WILL CUT YOU
