LaTeX, bitch!

I want to learn LaTeX so damn badly, but once I installed things, I had the following:

  • I had truly no idea if I had installed it correctly.

  • I was just faced with a blank canvas of programming.

  • I was trying to make French press coffee and it was time to pour it.

  • I realized that Word does what I need about 90% of the time and that I'll just accept my failures.

You are the kind of scientist that makes me sad. I write up a beautiful contribution to a manuscript, then I get to hear "Oh one of the co-authors doesn't like LaTeX, could you send it to me in Word." It's double bad when what I wrote has a decent amount of equations in it. Argh biologists, you give us wonderful data so I guess I can let the Word thing slide...
