'Touched'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I'm up! Congrats, Cubs fans! May this mark the end of the curse of 2016.
Job~ma, Plei and shrift and sarameg. May the universe turn in your favor.
My ex-boss wrote an encouraging note yesterday that our work is valuable and we shouldn't stress. I'm still stressing but it was nice of her.
Who wants to edit a stack of articles for me?? Don't all line up at once.
That must have been a hell of a game! When I saw the score earlier, it looked like the Cubs were going to blow it out. Congrats, Chicago et al.!
Well, the train is running and I woke to a radio ad from my employer so I guess I have to go load in A Christmas Carol again.
Hey, remember that assistant of mine who made changes to a manuscript and didn't keep a copy of the original? So today I found out she rearranged a list of references without changing the corresponding citations. So now the references are all mixed up. She claims she didn't know they were linked. How did this woman get a job here? How did she get a degree?
OMG, we had that happen here one time -- the references page got detached from the citations and alphabetized and it was a g.d. disaster.
I was mildly surprised to discover the world didn't end while I was sleeping.
It will be interesting to see what cheering for the Cubs feels like next year without the overarching sense of dread of the inevitable screw-up that adds another year to the drought that I've had all my life.
That sounds incredibly frustrating, Zen.
If Cleveland had won the World Series, after winning Basketball and Hockey (AHL) championships this year, that would mean the Browns would have to win the Superbowl, which SURELY mean the world was ending.
I just watched the highlights, and holy shit, what a game. I'm kind of glad I didn't have to live through it as a fan. The Saints' NFC championship game was stressful enough for a long time.
The author re-submitted the reference list, totally different from the first, and she accepted the new list without updating the cites and then alphabetized it. Might as well have thrown them at a wall. I ended up not even knowing which list was the right one to follow.

I physically recoiled when I read this. What. The. Shit, assistant???
