I understand what you are saying, and I do try to correct myself more than you think. Believe me, if I had a job and a staff, I'd have the best speller in the world checking my work.Just having fun. It's easy to make mistakes when touch typing and when you're in a hurry. But we can't afford to get into bad habits because we might end up making them in business or legal correspondence and that will be very costly. The good news is that I read every word you write so you have at least one loyal reader.
Loyal reader? That is flattering, but in all seriousness, I never want anyone to like what I write to the point of blindness. Unlike some famous people, not that I am famous, but even with my close friends, I don't want to be surrounded by yes people. I never every want to lose being grounded. Self esteem is one thing, but hubris and ego are nothing to be proud of. I never want to become a narcissist.
