Dear Microsoft Word,

Splitting a misspelled word into two words is NOT a valid suggestion for the correct spelling. My spelling sucks, I know this. However, suggesting “potent ional” as a correction for potentional, which was really not even that far off from potential, is not helping!! I don’t even know what the hell an ional is, and neither does dictionary.com.

Hopelessly Devoted,
April

Three words I don’t want to hear for like a week at least:
1. matrix
2. constituent
3. defection

Recent Writing Music:
Wilco
Frank Sinatra
Destroyer
Elliott Smith
The Wrens

Probability of me falling asleep outside on campus tomorrow, due to beautiful weather and canceled class:
80%
(which is coincidently the predicted high temp for tomorrow, before it drops down to 45 on Friday)

    Exactly. As far as software has come, it still has so freakin’ far to go.

    If it makes you feel better Drizz, it’s been cloudy all morning. The sun is only starting to peek out now.

    I have a buddy whose last name is Sinnott. Whenever he does spell check it asks if he wants to change it to Snotty.

    My options for TripJax…

    Trip Ax
    Trojan

    Awesome. I think I’ll go with Trojan from now on.
