I have two different microsoft identities, one for work and one for personal purposes.

I just finished my responses to my editor... in the wrong account.

So I did what any summer scholar does: I apologized, explained the mix-up, and sent in all the marked changes under the wrong identity. They're grown-ups, they can sort it out...

Banana chocolate chip bread fail. Used powder sugar instead of flour. #boo #oopsies 🥴 🤔🤪

I started on a Star of Hell's Horses and three Points of Jade Falcons to wrap up the multi-year Clan Invasion loot. In my haste I accidentally painted the Crossbow in the wrong gang 😅 "Oho".

The fifth horsie was to be an old IWM Nova coming for a repaint. So I'll keep on fixing my own endless cockups, as usual. I painted them with a dark grey + drop of blue over black primer, hoping it'd work with the hot rod flames 🤔 We'll see how it goes soonish.

Five BattleTech minis painted blue-tinted dark grey, placed on a green cutting mat.

The middle-center one, a Crossbow, got painted wrong instead of a Nova.

Two OmniMech minis, a Kingfisher and a Nova Cat, painted grey with green stripes for Clan Jade Falcon's Gamma Galaxy are placed on a well-worn cutting mat. All details and bare metals are yet untouched.

There's a really odd sort of internal embarrassment that comes over you when you see a little breadcrumb, say, "That's not right, but it's a global publication"; you reach for the google and swing by the University of Michigan.

For a moment, denial. Then, a bit shaken, you realize, ... "I've been doing all wrong my entire life!"

> "An ellipsis ( ... ) consists of three evenly spaced periods and is used to indicate the omission of words or suggest an incomplete thought. In general, an ellipsis should be treated as a three-letter word, with a space, three periods and a space. (Western Michigan University is ... nationally recognized and internationally engaged.)

> Never delete words that are central to the original meaning. Do not use ellipses at the beginning or end of direct quotes when writing a news story.

> Other guidelines and examples

> When the words before an ellipsis make up a complete sentence, place a period before the ellipsis. (Western Michigan University is a student-centered research university. ... )

> When the phrase preceding an ellipsis calls for a question mark, exclamation point, comma or colon, the correct order is: phrase, punctuation mark, space, ellipsis, space, next phrase. (What is a healthy university? ... The ability to think beyond our individual and limited view.)"

So... Strike that. So, ... There's always a space before the ellipsis, yet no grammar checker has ever gigged me for that, reinforcing the belief I had been doing it right for all these decades :/

You learn something new everyday - for me, this one was a doozy.

Throwback to that time I accidentally wore mismatched shoes to a Pride parade! 🌈🙈 They said I was setting a new trend, but I just needed a bigger shoe rack! 😂 #FashionFails #ShoeMixUp #PrideParade #Oopsies
