A Plea for Help...

Dear Readers,
I have a favor to ask of you. I am planning on applying for a new job this week (as a research assistant with the Women's Research Institute on campus), as part of the application they want a copy of a research paper I have written in the last year. Anyway since I didnt write many research papers I dont have a lot of options (which really isnt applicable to what I am asking from you). Anyway would any of you be willing to read my paper and edit it, by TUESDAY morning, I want to turn in the application before it closes. I know this is really really short notice and I understand that reading someone else's research paper is almost as much fun as sitting in a tub full of scissors but I would really really appreciate it (whether I get the job or not). I need to brace you in case you are considering helping me out, the topic of the paper is domestic violence so it is pretty depressing and I should warn you that I am much better at writing blogs than I am at writing research papers. Anyway if you are willing to read the paper I would really appreciate it, even if you think you arent great at editing I would still appreciate it because you present a fresh perspective (one that hasnt read the paper a thousand times already), and it is great if you are pretty harsh, just dont think that I am too dumb after reading it. Anyway PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE read my paper, I will email you a copy if you are willing to read it.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! YOU ARE ALL WONDERFUL!
