Once again, insomnia is the name of the game. Restless and sleepless. The nice part is that when I am asleep, I’m getting to cuddle Will. We’re sharing a bed while friends from Lima (one of my mentors, Valerie, and her husband Eric and happy 3-month old baby Diego) use our room. I’m not the only one, though, since Diego isn’t particularly interested in sleeping, either. (Not that he is fussy — he is the happiest, sweetest baby — but still awake.) So Valerie is nursing all the time, trying to get as much work time in the SPH&TM as possible, and barely sleeping. This is a situation I can very much understand and acutely remember. Is there such a thing as sympathy insomnia?<\/p>\n
But lack of sleep I can deal with. What is going to make crazy? The fact that I can’t save drafts on the writable PDF for the IRB submission forms (I have to use about 5) without buying Adobe Reader. (Paul pointed out the issue when I balked that I couldn’t save my work.) Currently downloading Nitro<\/a> trial to see if that will do the quick trick, if for only two weeks. It’s better than the cutting and pasting nightmare I’m currently facing. If I’m a raving maniac two hours from now, the reason has now been officially documented.<\/p>\n UPDATE: Nitro does the job. But it uses that new Word layout… the one that should be the poster example for why “change for the sake of change” is just not always a good thing. In other words, it’s really annoying. But it did the job and will keep doing the job for the 13 more days I’ve got it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Once again, insomnia is the name of the game.
