I keep getting people apologizing for thier typos and such lately.. In case Y'all haven't noticed, I can't type OR spell... I am NOT impressed with a perfectly placed comma and I don't even notice when a word is spelled wrong (I seriously can't spell), so really, no worries. I am more interested in how you express yourselves conversationally than in the rehersed and proof-read/edited mileu of the written word. There is a time and place for spell checks and grammer nazi-ism. This journal is not it.

Tee hee.. Perhaps a bit hyperbolic, but you got your point across... Obviously, having a comment that is LEGIBLE is important, but let's be honest here... How many times have you seen the kind of remarks that dismiss people's intelligence because they misspelled a word or misused a comma? That is the kind of thing I am talking about. On my journal, I don't want people thinking they will be judged, or that I will ignore their insights if they type "wuold" instead of "would." Or if they, heaven FORFEND, can't punctuate a proper appositive phrase. That's just my opinion.. But this is my journal, and here my opinion rules.. MUUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

1)Go to top of entry
2)Re-read
3)Repeat until point sinks in

LOL.. Still, rather Ironic, I agree. I told you I couldn't spell.

Don't sweat it. I proofread for a living, but if I'm not working, I pay very little attention to typos & grammar. Content is all I care about in a journal!

Hw did you get started?
