(But then, all advisors do . . . ) Good luck with your article!

It gets me at just the right time, because this week I came into my office, to find the final draft of my first paper I’m going to try to publish sitting on my desk. Yea! My advisor finally got around to reading it. But then, not yea… his wife had scribbled names of the 4th graders in their daughter’s class all over the cover, and removed the bottom half of the first page for scrap paper. What would drive a person to use some one else’s work as scrap paper I have no idea. But seeing this makes me laugh and look forward to my “post” defense party someday!
