Deadline crunch

Despite the peace I made with my computer problems on Tuesday by reading while I fixed the problems, losing two days of my week to computer problems has put me woefully behind.

Most of my clients are able to be pretty flexible. The deadline that is really causing a problem, however, is one for a local magazine. Because of the press date, there is only so much leeway my editor can give me. So for the next few days, I anticipate being pretty stressed!

Have you ever noticed that when catastrophes occur, they usually choose the most inconvenient time to do so — such as when a deadline is looming?
