You know it's bad when you create... [More:]
many, many typos and errors of punctuation and grammar. It's a cringefest when I reread my comments on AskMe.

I am tired of correcting myself. "That should have read blah, blah, blah", or "I really know how to spell Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!"

A little more time spent on the preview would be prudent, but I'm trigger-happy. :)
But it's wonderful when you create bunnies. Maybe it's just the bag of frozen peas on the side of my face talking, but I am truly enamored with the bunny you sent. Does he or she have a name?

On topic, the worst is looking at drunk fpp's the morning after.

Just blame it on fast typing.

Ha! My comments this evening are drunk with exhaustion posts.

Pi, I'm glad you liked the bunny. He has a disheveled look going on. How about calling him Oliver?

Yes bunnyfire! I think I will blame it on fast typing.

On writing drunken e-mails: I came home last night in a very happy state having celebrated my birthday. Things are going to hell in a handbasket at work so I had to check e-mails. There was a very important one that I felt I had to respond to in quite strong terms. I laid out the fact that my advice for the past 6 months was that what we were attempting to do had all the hallmarks of a slow train crash. I gave examples. I woke up this morning with a mild hangover and nearly freaked when I realised who I had written to in that state (and the people I had copied in! )
To make matters worse the VPN was down at work, as was internet so I could not get into my mails to see what I had written ( I'm a remote worker) or indeed any response.
My phone was strangely quiet this morning as for 50 minutes I went over in my head all the awful things that could result......
well, I just got in and saw that I managed to write a remakably cogent e-mail, with no hystrionics, just good plain facts. Phew! He wrote an e-mail at 7 am to say he had noted my concerns.I just feel like I escaped the guilletine. Lesson learnt.
