Grammer-check + Spell-check ≠ Ready-for-Prime-Time

"Sailers" was the final straw for me. Sailers, according to the Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary, is "a ship or boat especially having specified sailing qualities" and dates from the 15th century. See the link here: www.merriam-webster...

So....I'm sitting at work, bored almost senseless, but not quite, when I receive an email from my "old" job. Now, even though I'm still administratively part of my "old" job, I'm supposed to be working for my "new" job. Guess what this email is ...

Conflict
(blog entry)
I was rude to someone today. Unaccountably rude. He asked a question that would lead to another question, to which I already knew the answer. So, I jumped ahead and answered his real question: "I can't hang out with you tonight." "That wasn't...

I'm loving iTunes
(blog entry)
Any company who is willing to refund and/or compensate subscribers for missed TV episode downloads due to the writer's strike gets top marks. iTunes has done just that. I purchased a season pass for one of my favorite shows (that I can't watch b...

Bad Me
(blog entry)
So, I'm in a two-week long training class. It has its interesting moments. One thing I didn't count on was getting out at noon on the first Friday of the class. Now I have to decide if I'm going back to work, like the good little worker bee I a...

Why am I talking about sailers? Well, because two SAILORS are missing in the Bearing Sea and Weather.com is showing video of "Sailers Still Missing in Stormy, Frigid Sea." Sailers...SAILERS!!!!!!!

So....I'm sitting at work, bored almost senseless, but not quite, when I receive an email from my "old" job. Now, even though I'm still administratively part of my "old" job, I'm supposed to be working for my "new" job. Guess what this email is asking...yep! "Can you pleeeeeeeessssseeeeee come over and do this work for us?" Since there are only two people in the group who can do the work, and the other person is desperately trying to finish his PhD, guess who gets to do most of the work.....

I was rude to someone today. Unaccountably rude. He asked a question that would lead to another question, to which I already knew the answer. So, I jumped ahead and answered his real question: "I can't hang out with you tonight." "That wasn't what I asked," he said. "I'm doing my taxes tonight." I replied, knowing full-well that none of the things we do while hanging out allow me to respect myself in the morning. So, I was rude, cut to the chase, and probably hurt him. And now I feel...

Any company who is willing to refund and/or compensate subscribers for missed TV episode downloads due to the writer's strike gets top marks. iTunes has done just that. I purchased a season pass for one of my favorite shows (that I can't watch because I'm not home), and all of the eps aren't being made due to the strike. So, iTunes has given us two free tv show downloads, and might even give a rebate if enough new eps aren't made. GO APPLE!!!!!!!

So, I'm in a two-week long training class. It has its interesting moments. One thing I didn't count on was getting out at noon on the first Friday of the class. Now I have to decide if I'm going back to work, like the good little worker bee I am, or rebel and take it easy and rest my poor little brain. I've decided to rest. And maybe work on a costume. I'm justifying my decision (we have to justify EVERYTHING in this class) by saying that I didn't put down any extra time on my timecard ...
