Writerly Ways
Sep. 11th, 2023 09:54 pmAnyone know a good curse breaker? I think I'm in need. Today was fucking on fire in the worst ways. Computers and the cloud can all suck it. The notes are still wrong. Some are right and some aren't (the ppt and the pdf aren't matching even though I save one from the other so the ppt is being pulled from somewhere different) someone has the homework already done for them on Connect and were honest enough to say so (unless they did it and screwed up and wanted a second chance), the video capture failed and now I'll have to do it again on my own time and then the mid term for my online only class is gone. GONE. I had to ask IT about it. pray they have an answer or all day tomorrow I'll have to recreate it you know after lab and my ob/gyn appt. Sob.
No seriously nearly broke down into tears in class over this (I couldn't even fix up the next unit of notes because I've been so busy fixing things that shouldn't be broken in the first fucking place). Did break down into swears. Classy.
