Annals of bad timing:

Spent about an hour just now working on a somewhat overdue copy edit in our content management system. Tried to save. No response. Tried to save. No response. Developer comes in and says "Are you working in Rhythmyx?"

Me: "Yes..." *hits Cancel"

Him: "Is it really slow?"

Rhythmyx: *presents dialog box informing me about unsaved changes and would I like to save before closing?*

Me: "Yes..." *hits Yes*

Him: "Because I'm doing a full publish and I'm getting an out of memory error. I wondered if anyone else was having problems."

Rhythmyx: *presents 500 Internal Server Error*

Me: *sobs*

Him: "Oh, did you just lose something?"

Me: "I really wish you'd come in about a minute earlier."

Fortunately everything I did was pretty mechanical, but that's the thing, it's so bloody BORING I don't like having to do it more than once.

I'm going home now.
