…when I hit the “send” or “ok” key to email or upload a paper submission to a journal. It’s involuntary, I think. I just realized I was (unconsciouly, and all alone in my office) humming this tune as I sent an email submission to the Journal of Latin American Studies.
Do you have a funny thing you do when you submit a paper?
So who or what is going to bite the dust?
That’s just it. I’m not sure. But somehow, I must associate that song with ‘getting things done.’ Go figure.
And I don’t really have any funny thing I do when I submit, but I do have one quirk–I think I’ve sent off almost all my manuscripts on a Friday. Maybe I feel like it’s a nice cap to the week, maybe I like an excuse to have a few drinks to celebrate, I’m not sure.
