I just found out I've spent the WHOLE DAY reformatting the wrong version of a 94 page document.

Now I get to start again on the other version.

*cries*

I suppose a maniacal laugh wouldn't be accepted in lieu of either a hug or vodka?

I've just found out that one of the team has spent the last day figuring out how to insert into a spreadsheet stuff that [I thought] I'd been quite explicit *shouldn't* go in the spreadsheet. given that the spreadhseet in question would make both Frankenstein and Frank N Furter shudder in horror, I should feel a little more sympathy...

Oh dear.

I've got whisky and reheated satay beef. As long as I don't dream of rounded boxes, I will be a much happier camper.

Hands over a vodka flavoured hug;p

Urgh frustrating! But doesn't that mean you get to double the fun by formatting a whole other document as well? (or am I the only person who enjoys that sort of thing?)

A stunning combination of both!

The section breaks alone nearly broke my brain the first time around.

And it's not a new document - it's the revised version of the same document. I say "the" revised version. I really mean version 5. Round boxes people! Why is this such a difficult concept to grasp?

Anyway today I have shopped, and shopped mightily. I hope it will get me through the next couple of weeks of doing lots of proofing and therefore re-formatting as no one but me seems to understand the brand guidelines. Round boxes, dammit! I have new clothes, shoes, jewellery and books, as well as the mp3 player I bought last month. Now I just have to not eat for the next four weeks. :o)
