How's This for Randomness?

I'm editing volume 4 of my novel series, right? I'm moving briskly along and suddenly, M$ Word starts mis-displaying italicized words. It only displays some of the words in italics and when I try to select them, the wrong words highlight. Also, sometimes bold text screws up, too. I don't know what's up. I tried DLing OpenOffice, but in order to install it you have to have one of your Mac OSX startup discs handy and I'm at my boba house and I'm not about to walk back home because some dumbass "free" office suite needs the install CDs for the OS. What an absurd requirement!! Yes, here's a new oil filter for your car, but you need to drive back to the dealer so they can install a bunch of extra stuff you didn't think you'd need.

Way to compete with M$Office, morons!!

I don't know what's up with M$Word. I'm going to try it in another word processor and see if it's just the file or if it really is Word. Now, if I can just find another word processor...

Sheesh. If it's not one dumbass little thing stopping me from working on stuff I actually care about, it's another.
