I finally received my peer-reviewed paper back. I am invited to revise and resubmit.... yes, the comments were repugnant. I don't feel like making my argument in the direction he/she/it wants me to.... and will proceed with going to the nearest rubber room to express my extreme rage. Then I'll chang...

People who don't understand the personal space concept.

All I want for Christmas is a decision letter for my paper that isn't worth discussing here. Unless it's a scathing rant "decision," then it can wait until after January 1st.

I'm with that guy.

I sometimes have the opposite problem. I might sum something up in a way I deem needs no further explanation. But then, I inevitably get a "not clear" back... too jargon-laden, usually.

Editors are brutal. BRUTAL....

Creativity update: I have had a surge in creativity. Nothing is more dynamic and productive than a team writing session (caveat: must have the right people). If you can land yourself in a situation lending itself to working with awesome people, and leave your ego at the door, the product will be muc...

Clinton's wardrobe, which I already presumed was ultra expensive (!!), is a news topic I believe. But seriously... I shop designer. I noticed a HYUUUUUUUGE difference in her wardrobe during this campaign. Her current wardrobe is probably worth several times as much as some of y'all's retirement savi...

God is good; for example, he gives us seasons to enjoy that come and go. Without the absence of something at some point, how can you appreciate its presence? You should be more tolerant and have a full understanding of my world view before administering negative reputation points.

Why can't it be football season? Because God is good.

I was browsing a social media site via smartphone and saw some douche I knew previously under "people you may know." Yes, unfortunately, that is sometimes the case. I then made the mistake of falling back to sleep, and had what I considered a "bad" dream not long after about said...

I haven't decided yet; but, I do like a place where it's peaceful and I can be left the hell alone :)

Not really. It sort of confirmed my suspicion that I had no native American ancestry. I'm 100% European. Specifics: 96.9% Northwestern European (57% British/Irish), 1.7% Southern European, 0.4% Eastern European, and 1% broadly European. I'm also highly primitive, given my level of whiteness. I have ...

You must really hate your life. I am sorry for you.

Anyway, results are in finally. I am pleased to have some information.

Some things never change.

Right on.

I'm not ashamed to say that I voted for Trump in the primaries. So be it. Whatever trite comment made here is irrelevant. I care about the overarching policies of this country, not the off hand remarks of one person.

Guess we saw that coming.

I suggest accepting how you work and think, as well as finding an encouraging mentor with expertise to challenge your thinking. I'm a deductive thinker. If I have found a premise or main purpose for telling a story, everything flows from that point. Some writers, while in the process, do not initial...

"10/10 would get depression again...." I cannot concur!

Well, project #BrautGenome is experiencing an information black out. There is no information as of yet.

I should have sent in cat saliva to see what would happen.

Scientist: "MAJOR BREAKTHROUGH -- THIS IS SOMETHING WE HAVE NEVER BEFORE SEEN!"
