It's not the kind of book you read cover to cover, tbh. :)
I think I'll just open it up randomly. :zoinks:
Precisely what I did when I first bought my Chicago - 14th edition, I think. So much interesting stuff in there. Actually it's still what I do with every new style guide I buy. :)

I miss being an editor sometimes, tbh. Being paid to be a language (and form) nerd is not a bad gig.
I didn't know you were an editor. That's interesting. A level above proofreading. There's a lot to get my head around still. In Hart's Rules there are a few mentions of XML.

Everything went as planned at the house I was working on and I even got a check without having to ask

Woke up this morning feeling almost normal after a fucking month with a terrible flu-like thing.

I took two of the OTC Covid tests and was negative for both tests four days part, as per the instructions on the box.
This shit started Monday after Christmas with tummy troubles for two weeks then invaded my lungs and finally my sinus cavities.
Still coughing some, sneezing and blowing my nose a lot, but it feels like it's going away!!

Took the cub to a winter festival in a park and he got to go down an ice slide and play with snow blocks to build a fort. Well the fort was already built but he added a few blocks and played inside it. They had a couple guys there in sleeveless shirts in the falling snow, with chainsaws, sawing away at a block of packed snow to make more bricks for the kids.

I did my best to convince the cub that knocking down the fort afterwards and leaving nothing for the next kids is not good playground manners. He was not thrilled.

You'll never self-actualize the subconscious canopy of stardust with that attitude.

Yeah, I like it too.

Today Kayleigh and I went to the gym and then to various other places to get things we needed. She's been a great help to me since last week but I would still rather drive one-handed than let her drive my car. She doesn't have her licence.

Finished our taxes today.
This past year was the best we've ever done with the IRS. A very small return from Fed and state and nothing to pay.
Closest we've ever come to meeting our goals.
Pay only the taxes we are assessed and do not give the government an interest free loan of OUR money!
