I'm not going to write much tonight. The paper was having some technical issues and needed someone to retype a bunch of stories, and I got the call for that task. I haven't mentioned this, but the last time I went to the driving range (crabbycrabby) I think I may have done something to my wrist because it has been sore ever since. And today while I was typing, that wrist started to really hurt and eventually went completely numb. So that was fun.
Today I turned in the article I wrote on the interview I did last night and the editor, no wait, my editor said that it was quite good. He said that he really liked my lead, which was something he had criticized about the little writing audition thing he had me do last week. But I didn't feel too bad about the criticism because at the time I didn't really know what a lead was. Now that I know what a lead is, I'm glad to find out that I can indeed write one.
I'm grateful for feeling useful (20).

king procrastinator: First of all – congratulations! I wish you well. Second, sorry about the “technical issues.” It wasn’t my fault – I swear! I’m trying hard to correct them; tomorrow hopefully.
Wow. You're responses to the comments on this blog are better than my responses. Maybe I should hire you to write for me. . . Thanks for the congrats and well wishes. And don't worry. I know you're not to blame for the technical issues. But I was thinking that maybe that guy that sits back there with you was.
