dewlineSo. That's a word now.
I didn't think that it existed until this morning, but a quick web search explains with its search results that the word has been around for at least a few weeks. Possibly, much longer, but my attention span and ability to focus are not what they could be right now. So it's likely something I've missed.

And I've been doing a lot of both. You could say my job search has involved a lot of that too. No, you won't be subjected to more details than already given in past postings. You're all dealing with pains of your own.
