ten minute break

heehee...microsoft word is a funny little beast.

a squiggly green line appears under "well-being," and upon right-clicking it, i am told that it ought to be "well being." so i nix the hyphen. the squiggly green line appears again, and lo and behold, the suggested form is "well-being."

i found MS word's weak point. ehhh heh heh heh...

there are many things i'd rather be doing than writing this paper that's due tomorrow--i.e., writing a blog post about this dear fellow named matt, and going outside and jumping on the trampoline, and drawing a picture, and setting up an etsy site for my boss, and finding a college scholarship lying on the side of the road.

but i stinkin' can't--


(yer all curious about this dear fellow named matt now, aren'tcha? don't jump to conclusions. just gimme a sec [read: couple hours slash decades] to finish my paper.)

well, i'll tell you one thing about that jim guthrie fellow. he writes pretty melodies with sweet lyrics.

oy vey! i hate papers-due-tomorrow.
microsoft word has some many weak points. at least my version does, but i like the little paper-clip friend they give you.

microsoft word has MANY grammar mistakes and idiosyncrasies; i have long complained about it; i think it gives people false security that what they have written is right when it is actually wrong...(this from the former English teacher, sorry, old habits die hard)

I have experienced this nasty green line that won't g away no matter what you do. It's funny stuff.

Is this Matt the Matt I know? The one you saw just last week?
