Sounds like you're clear to not make changes then, meara. And it also sounds like the company rep isn't that invested in getting their work published.
Tara: Do you have any books on robots? Giles: Oh, yes, dozens. There's a lot of research to be done in order to--no, I'm lying. Haven't got squat. I just like watching Xander squirm.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
It's also raining in New Orleans, where a sinkhole has started swallowing cars. (Not near any of our NOLA people.)
I feel your pain, meara. My deadline for people to send me changes was close of business on Wednesday. My manager ended up chasing them down yesterday afternoon, which meant I got the final changes at 6:30, so I was working until 8:30. Apparently my solution of "fuck them, they knew when the deadline was" didn't fly when you're talking about PMs reviewing documents that are about to be released.

I would have supported your solution. Hell, I used that solution a few times.

Yeah, they hire us so there's only so much pushback we can give.
Tonight has been the weirdest. Wtf universe. After months and months and months of nothing, tonight, when I have a sex friend flying in from Canada, tonight you decide to throw a hottie at me who walks up and remembers me from like 8 years ago and introduces herself and (a bit later) kisses me?!? Wtf. And then Canada's connecting flight gets canceled?

woke up to the outside corner of one eye feeling bruised and that eye a bit swollen. no clue.
Kittens are at that size/age now where they are full on BONKERS. only 2 of the 5 are eating mostly from the bottle, so the others cry at this point only to get out of the kennel and play.

My poor cousin -- not did her Mom die last week, but her only child's graduation is today (rain predicted), so she's sheparding her bereaved and increasingly forgetful 89yo father around to it, but her FiL fell and broke his hip two days ago.
I'm exhausted just typing it out.

Wtf = Who To Fuck in this instance, I gather.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I made it to the office, but am still full of Don't Wanna! I didn't time my self-bribe right: got near the office and had the burger, and now all that's left is the satisfaction of doing my work. Is that a thing????
