Slipping Time

I sat down to look at some work for a few minutes, and the next thing I know it's two hours later. The good news is I did actual work during that time. The bad news is I didn't get other, probably more urgent stuff done, and now my head is aching and my stomach is reminding me that I haven't eaten yet today, and it's 4:30.

Oops.

I enjoy editing. To do it well, you have to become completely immersed in the piece and know it inside and out. So it's absorbing and demanding work. And it's rewarding when you're able to do more than correct grammar here and there.
