A Reporter's Life


This reporter's life

This blog is titled "A Reporter's Life," so I decided to mention a few things that have happened on this day in my reporting life.
1. I accidentally sent a 43-page PDF file to the printer, but when I tried to cancel it, my computer froze. I rebooted. I rebuilt the desktop (Mac thing). It froze. I rebooted. Lather, rinse, repeat. Again. I think it's working now.
2. I hung up after talking to someone and said, "Question-dodger!" That's never a good sign, but in this case it's quite interesting. It will be filed in a certain section in my mental database.
3. I have a large pile of folders on my desk and a huge contamination map tacked to my wall because an editor cleaned his office.
4. And, last but not least, an iguana used my chairmat as a bathroom. I kid you not.

Hah. Try printing, for example, page 350-352 of a book, but mess it up so you instead write 350 in the "Copies" box, thereby printing HUNDREDS of similar pages. I'm not sure how many I did print that time, but I think the pile of paper was about an inch and a half before I discovered what was going on.

Once a three-legged guinea pig used my lap as a bathroom.

Trav: I've come close to doing that more than once, but I don't think I've succeeded.

Cynthia: What happened to the other leg?

valium is a popular antidepressant.

its a little known fact that prescription medications such as valium can be bought legally over the internet. Prices are usually much lower than traditional bricks and mortar pharmacies.

cheap xanax is hard to come by in your local pharmacies because the prices are artificially inflated. Online stores have greater competition and are able to provide you with exactly the same medication at up to 30% off.
