Woe is Me...

Under the "Skills" section of my resume, just list "Poor File Manager".

So, I'm finishing up my group paper for Organizational Stewardship around 10:30 this evening, all pumped to go to bed at a decent time. This paper was around 26 pages when I closed it (with lots of spaces, don't worry).

I go to attach the file, and it's not there.

That's because I DIDN'T SAVE IT, BIG DUMMY!

Ugh. I'm sick to my stomach. I didn't lose all of it, just the two hours worth of work I put in tonight. Did I mention it's due tomorrow?

The re-creation is going okay...aided by an Oreo 100 Calorie pack and some milk.

Oh, and I also took a break from crying and pulling my hair out to sit downstairs in the dark with Brent while we watched the neighbor kitties fight with each other on our front porch. Hilarious. I think they were fighting over a large bug...either that or it was sexual tension. You know how cats can be.

I would insert a cool picture of a cat right here, except I clearly don't have time for that. :)

Oh no! I hope you got the recreation done as quickly as possible!! If this makes you feel any better, I've made the same mistake before!

OH NOOOOOO! LinDizzle Im so sorry for your loss... that my sounds weird, but I've been there and it really is a loss. There is a pit in your stomach because you just worked so hard and it was perfect... I totally understand, BUT the next draft will be even better that the first because you can rephrase and make it WONDERFUL! If you need any help with B.S.ing DONT HESITATE to let me know :) Love and miss you Linds! And no worries you will do great! :)
