Someone who remembers random things, is excellent at trivia and is anal retentive about grammar and style. Copy editors (in journalism) also write headlines, subheadlines and captions, so you also have to be good with wordplay. It's a dying field though - most newspapers can't afford copy editors anymore, so they either go without or they train copy editors to be general editors but they no longer have the time to be as picky with the copy, so sloppy editing ensues. <br /><br />Walking and public transportation are great! Essentially when we are all too old to drive (safely), we will want to live somewhere car-independent. Why not start when you're younger? eeps.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10627356547323862881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-40032718628605975602018-05-14T21:13:04.959-04:002018-05-14T21:13:04.959-04:00thank you eeps.!

Very affordable to live (housing and food), but I didn't like the dependency on a car. I moved back to NYC about 5 years ago; I was in the Southwest for 4 years because my company relocated. I had the choice between Southwest, Midwest and South, and while it was nice for a few years, I'm not the SW type. Maybe if I were closer to retirement. The weather was lovely most of the year, until the summer when I basically was a vampire who only came out at night. A copy editor is an editor who works strictly with grammar and style, as opposed to any other editor who might be editing for overall content and substance. In my case, I studied journalism in grad school and trained specifically as a copy editor, which is a career track within journalism. Hope this helps! eeps.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10627356547323862881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-36938085219127530662018-05-13T23:19:55.402-04:002018-05-13T23:19:55.402-04:00I was looking for a discount as well.

Floral dresses, aloha Hawaiian shirts, straw hats, swimsuits galore, shorts, linen, seersucker, flip flops…we’re here to help our customers stock up on summer essentials for the whole family so they can pack up and hit the beach, the neighborhood pool, or camp. We’re definitely feeling blue, tropical color tones mixed with fun summer prints (big focus on SZ blockprints), straw accessories, and splashes of seashells and fruits.Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07169460293512478540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-24095297683749133172018-05-13T16:57:04.200-04:002018-05-13T16:57:04.200-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07169460293512478540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-59204636636350046122018-05-13T16:43:55.790-04:002018-05-13T16:43:55.790-04:00Thanks for the tip about tjmaxx online.

I like these and especially wear the racerback style. I've ordered some on Amazon etc but have had mixed reviews with a lot of them. At least I know I can return these to a store if I don't like them. <br />There was a fairly limited selection so the website wasn't bad.

They honored the online pricing of some hair accessories that were sold out online which was great. I really appreciate the attentiveness that they gave me today. <br /><br />I got an email from J Crew yesterday asking me to preview some holiday girls gear. It was all way too over the top and nothing that I’d put my 2yr old in. They need to go back to simple/classic/timeless and not try to put six trends into one garment.

Didn't know they used to be better quality. That's disappointing.<br /><br />I hate Target's website. They lost me at banner ads and boxing each item in with a gray line. Also finding things is difficult with such a large inventory.<br /><br />I like jcrew because as erratic as their sizing and quality is, they do make my size, and more stuff than not is still of decent quality. The ratios are the opposite at most other places.anonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04316327189275372427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-34784078059641584762018-05-13T14:17:55.733-04:002018-05-13T14:17:55.733-04:00Liz, what Boden dress is that?

Sometimes you can get around the search function limitations by using style names and key words associated with the brand. As far as the free shipping minimum, I just order more stuff to try. I am in my local store ridiculously often anyway, so returning is no big deal for me.<br /><br />Even in the store, though, I get annoyed that I have to rummage through racks of cheap plastic handbags to find the gems. I tell myself that someone else would have already grabbed all the good stuff if it wasn’t hidden behind crap, lol.

I’ve heard good things about it. I’m excited that they're using more natural fibers as I absolutely hate synthetics. I plan to stop by and take a look in the next few days. <br /><br />I used to love their Nick and Nora pajama line until they went cheap with the fabric and made everything out of polyester. That brand used to be strictly a department store brand and was quite expensive. When Target first started selling the brand, the style and quality was exactly the same as department store merchandise had been, but at a much lower price point. I wore that brand exclusively for several years, adding a few new pairs every season, until they started using cheap synthetics and making weird styles. I was so disappointed.
