Finally sent my anthro and counter-insurgency paper in for forthcoming book. Had to cut from 7800 to 5600 words. Glad to be done with it.
| dwax For some reason I can't find my copy (yes, *my* copy) of Our Bodies, Ourselves. It's like 14" thick, so I can't imagine where it's hiding. |

| dwax @teepoole Urgent care is always a wreck -- crummy drs and no resolution. B4 ER, I think we want to know if it's normal when going off pill. |
|
| dwax @teepoole Yeah -- just changed health plans, so she's a "new patient" and can't get in until July 17! Meanwhile, nauseating pain. |
|
| dwax Medical: GF went off pill b/c of problems. Now, has awful cramps, like contractions, and hurts bad when she sits hard. Normal? Any ideas? |
|
| dwax @msaleem thanks for the diggs lately. My post on the neurology of goal-setting is climbing fast: http://is.gd/Nq0 I'd love if people read it |

| dwax My 13-yr old stepson's friend looks at me at dinner and asks "How do you know so much stuff?" I say back, "Easy, I make it up." |
|
| dwax Shaved my beard off today, after 10 years. I now look 12. Not a good look for me. I will be regrowing tout de suite! |
|
| dwax Man, life sure has a way of sneaking up and kicking my ass. |
|
| dwax I hate confirming friend adds on Facebook. |

|
| dwax @teepoole Tell me about it! My 14th rule: any time I write on the importance of editing/proofreading, I will make at least 1 stupid error. |
|
| dwax @inkedmn I thought image indexing was part of the basic plan, or was that just during the private beta? |
|
| dwax Does anyone actually answer the phone when Caller ID says "unknown " or "blocked"? |
|
| dwax Realizing that "it's important to" can almost always be cut. "It's important to remember that..." = "Rememeber that...", & 2nd is better. |
|
| dwax The latest thing in comment spam seems to be scraping text from press releases and/or news stories to trick filters into seeing it as legit. |
|
| dwax @longstride But do you rotate stock? |
|
| dwax @lizstrauss Hope you enjoy my grandfather's stash of Victorian nudie-girl cards. Next time you rob a deposit box, you'll be more selective! |
|
| dwax When you edit as much as I do, you find errors in every published work -- blog posts, books, magazine articles. It's a curse, I tell you! |
|
| dwax @inkedmn What does premium offer that "regular unleaded" doesn't? I hadn't even noticed there was an Evernote upgrade level. |
