I'm at school early. Had a date with the hot librarian last night, and you know what? the hot librarian is.... well, hot.  she had to go to work, so... I took the ride rather than stay in bed an extra half hour to talk the bus.
The thing is, I brought my computer to school so I could finish my essay for writing, but I can't get it out of my email and into my computer because i used a newer version of microsoft office word on the school computer to revise it last time. Now it's not formatted for my version of word, and it's stuck in my email. I think I might just retype what I changed last time so i can still keep my electronic copy.
I should get on that. My looong day begins in an hour and fifteen minutes.

Heya. Do you use Google? As you can try importing the file into Google Docs, and then either editing it there or copying/pasting from there.

i had the same problem re. the new version of word (2007). you can save it as an older version. so, if you're back on the school computer go to "save as" and try the older version. that worked for me since i have word 2000 on my own computer. (might not work with word for mac though...at least not for graphs, etc.). xo, h

hey, thanks! I think that may be what I ended up doing by accident. Of course, not until after I had re-made all my revisions by retyping them. Live and learn.
Thanks! It's nice to see you lurking again ;)
