I know Word's spellcheck won't catch everything. And it won't tell you when you have "there" in place of "their." But I always copy the text out of a nearly final PDF, paste it into Word, and run spellcheck right at the end of a project, and it ALWAYS catches at *least* one thing that proofreaders, authors, editors, and I all missed. Today it was "Commonweath" instead of "Commonwealth."

Whew.

March 31 is World Backup Day! Who knew. Here's a little post from ProfHacker: https://www.chronicle.com/blogs/profhacker/how-are-you-going-to-celebrate-world-backup-day/65259

@aldersprig
Oh cool! I like it. Thanks for sharing.

@aldersprig
I like the top one...
Would you mind posting a photo of the spread? I'm interested in the #bujo idea but haven't started one yet.

(if you'd rather not post it though I understand!)

@brinsolomon
That looks great!

@GucciPiggy
Aw, dogs are great too!

@GucciPiggy
Five right now, which is a little ridiculous. 3 are permanent, 2 are fosters.

@GucciPiggy
He's my best boy!

Mastalab seems to be working well.

@jannamark
Aw!
Next time?

@GucciPiggy @zelderan Yeah, I've been on Tusky since I joined and haven't explored the alternatives.

@GucciPiggy @zelderan Ooh, I'm gonna try Mastolab.

@Binkerism these are nice!

What's everyone #reading?

I #amreading New York 2140 by Kim Stanley Robinson. I think it's good but I'm having a hard time really getting into it--maybe because I'm reading it as an ebook on my phone and that feels like a weirdly disjointed approach for this #book.

Good morning.

Up early, cats are fed. Tuna and pumpkin, their favorite. Time to go run.

I feel reasonably okay after yesterday's long run. And I'm looking forward to a medium run today on trails with friends.

@alice Happy birthday!

@bradamant Yeah, I definitely appreciate the "on yer left"-ers.

@bradamant Eek. But will the cyclists also be up earlier once it's warmer out? Good job getting the run done.

@jannamark Super--thanks!

@mcmoots Thank you! So that's good, I can at least follow them in the web app. And maybe I'll check out Tootdon.
