If anyone is around to read this, I hope you’re having a good holiday with family & friends. We had some festivities last night and more planned for tonight. In the meantime, I decided to get some writing done.
I printed the style guide for eHow. I started to print some notes and source articles. Now, keep in mind my current day job is as a medical transcriptionist, which includes a lot of printing in and of itself. Although we went to town yesterday, I didn’t pick up any printer ink.
You see where this is going, don’t you?
Yeah. I ran out of ink and can’t print the rest of my source notes.
Ideally, I could flip back and forth between windows and write an article like that. But it doesn’t work for me like that. I don’t know if it’s the act of going from window to window or if I’m just hardwired weird (OK, scratch that, I know I’m weird) or my eyesight or what, but it just makes things easier to me to have the notes/source material printed and at my elbow (literally).
I can start the opening, but the rest will have to wait until I can get to Staples tomorrow.
My only point is this: Make sure you have all the supplies you need on hand and buy a new ink cartridge when you put your last one in.
That’s more a reminder to myself than anything else. I guess I’ll work on Navajo Rose now instead.
