editing while sick is stupid

[escritoireazul]

I think I may have done my xmmficathon more harm than good by trying to do one final edit this evening. It's also possible editing on medication wasn't the smartest idea in the first place, but that medicine can be so tricky.

"Yes, Carla, go ahead. It's a perfect time to cut five hundred words (almost an entire scene). Of course you wanted to get rid of all that dialogue. Yes, yes, and while you're at it, do try to swallow some crackers, I'm sure your throat will be fine."

So I'm going to have to go back over it in the morning. So it is late for the first deadline. I feel bad. I would feel worse, except I am still a little loopy on the medicine. Plus I'm so stuffed up right now I can't smell Vicks VapoRub. I didn't think it was possible to not smell it.

I am going to bed.

Awww you could have sent in the copy that wasn't the final edit. :/

Yeah, you know, I didn't actually think of that until after the fact. I feel dumb. *facepalm*
