Dear Editors,

I'm sorry. I know I'm not as interesting as your other clients. I know I shouldn't have asked you to take care of the cats. I know I shouldn't ask so much of you, such a huge demand on your time.

But please, please, please call me back. I need you - I can't go on without you. I'm just wandering around the agency, wondering what to do next.

Yours,
That one whiny girl

Seriously. I've got 58 pages of feline behavior guidelines that I really need a vet to edit down to 30 pages, and none of my vet writers are calling me back... I think everybody's on vacation, but I can't finish the project without an editor. It's going to be a loooooooooong day.

And also, since I'm being whiny, I feel that the following words from Morrissey are appropriate to my day:

CD's and t-shirts and promos and god knows,
Oh, you know I couldn't last.
Someone please take me home?

With evil legal eagles,
You know I couldn't last
Accountants rampant,
You know I couldn't last...
Someone please take me home?

Oh, baby.

Email that puppy to me at work, if you like. I'll get it down to the right number of pages for you. Plus, I'd like the chance to avoid my own work, while still appearing to get work done.

Thanks, loveliest. I'd love to, but I don't think I can convince the client that you're a veterinarian. *sigh*

Hell, it's not *that* technical. I could do it myself. But they want a vet.

Hm...that sucks.

We could always experiment with new titles for ourselves. Would the client know that a doctorate in bullshit wasn't a veterinary specialty?

New Titles

I'm all about new titles.
And D.B.S. is not bad, but I think we can do better on that.... I'll think about it and get back to you.

Would they accept a BS in biochemistry and biology? I'll help if I can.
