Ahhh, yeah. I'm always afraid I'll turn in a paper that still says, "As [dude] says in his [year] article, [quotation]. This [noun from quotation] is evident in mm. [x], where the low strings [do something]."

This is my secret fear. And it's why I give myself time to edit.

But: ahhh, footnotes. How I've missed you.

It's weird to be in a position to actually use them when writing an MLA-style paper. I've finally hit the point in my academic career where I can have things like, "[xyz] [page numbers] has an interesting discussion of [something related to what I'm discussing but which I don't want to quote]," or "For a critical overview of [whatever issue I'm touching on], see [XYZ]."
