I realized this morning that part of why I keep brooding about finances is that almost all the copy I proofread is money-related, either "win lots of money" or "Save! Buy this thing [that nobody needs] for less than the [horribly inflated] "value/MSRP/future price". If I were working on medical copy, I might be developing hypochondria.

I like tectonics, and I'm on solid bedrock a long way from the Ring of Fire. Of course, I work on a hundred-mile-long sandbar....
