The thing about babies...

... is that they're just so forgiving. I was doing immunisations this afternoon, and I always feel so guilty because they get brought into the room with me preparing the jabs, and they smile and gurgle and laugh at me like I'm the best thing that's ever happened to them. And then I do the dirty deed and they yell a lot. And two minutes later they're laughing again and giving me a huge grin like nothing ever happened. If only I was that forgiving.

I'm SO frustrated with my computer. I didn't bother getting M$Word because I hate it, and also because my super duper computer had M$Works which is more or less the same thing. Except that it doesn't save things as .doc without a lot of extra effort, but as .wps which don't open on any other PC it seems except mine. When I emailed the essay to my tutor I checked to see if it had worked (2 previous attempts hadn't - one I forgot to attach the essay, oops, and the other I attached a blank document by mistake - I must be creating such a great impression) and I found that it had sent it as a crappy WordPad document with no page breaks so when she prints it out it will probably look awful. I can't believe I still care though - after my early morning efforts I feel totally jetlagged. Looking forward to rejoining humanity tomorrow after (hopefully) having had a LOT of sleep.
