School Email

Last Tuesday, I was on the bus to placement and I saw the man and woman who'd had that altercation a few days earlier. They were sitting in the same places as before. I guess they didn't feel the need to build space. The guy had his backpack on his lap, so I guess the woman won that dispute. In a way, I'm happy that the guy learned proper bus etiquette, but in another, it's kind of aggravating that the woman might feel encouraged to use that communication style.

I got some lining for my bundle buggy. Awwwww, yeah, no more anxiety about items falling through the iron mesh!

Roll Up the Rim is happening at Tim Horton's. There's a participant at WALES who I always have guess if I'll win because he. Is. Never. Wrong. Just one of those weird oddities of life. I had him guess my first Roll Up, he said I'd win which, of course, happened. Good way to start things off.

You can't just use a win on your regular order, I believe. You have to get the best value for your win. Felt a little weird asking for the Caramel Dream Latte, though.

I hate the school emailing system. I'm supposed to send a Respect Question of the Week every Monday. I'm supposed to include everyone in a BCC so their emails come in individually, but the BCC option doesn't wwork on my home computer for some reason. So I go to use a school computer, but the school computer doesn't let me copy/paste addresses. Last time, I wound up typing in every address manually for the entire campaign, which takes forever.

And when I tried copy/pasting from my home computer, it wouldn't send because it needs a semicolon between each address. So I tried putting a semicolon between each, but then the address recognition function kicked in and switched the recognized addresses to student names. But for some reason when it did this, it changed every address that didn't have a semicolon into one, giant, unrecognized address that it wouldn't let me edit.

 So now I've thought to copy/paste into a word processor and then manually put the semicolons in, then copy/past from that into the address bar. This way, I only have to make modifications when new people join Respect. But the graph that I pull data from auto-formats in a way that it can't be put in the address bar. So now I've got to do each address individually and put semicolons between them. Gonna take a few hourrs maybe.

It's annoying because the address recognition function and auto-formatting are supposed to be convenient, but their side-effects make my life a lot harder.
