Even though I read through each blog twice before I post sometimes mistakes slip through. This is a posting I wrote for a previous blog about one of my most common errors. Hope you enjoy. Remember to share a joke with someone today because April is National Humor Month.
“In a relationship sometimes you wake up one day and realize that you don’t know the person any more, that you’ve drifted apart. You’re not sure how it happened, but suddenly you feel different. And when you’re honest with yourself you know it really wasn’t all that sudden. But you don’t know how it started.
And so it is with my complicated relationship with the letter ‘S’. I don’t know when it began, but the letter ‘S’ and I have grown apart. I didn’t even know it. In fact I would have gone on thinking everything was alright if my husband hadn’t pointed it out to me. And when I had to look at it straight in the mouth I saw the terrible truth; in almost every blog I’d written for months I’d left off the ‘s’ at the end of words.
Oh ‘S’ how could this have happened? Where did we go wrong? It’s not like I hate you or anything. I just sometimes find you inconvenient. When I’m typing I guess I’m just thinking faster than I can type, and you just get left behind. Don’t take it personally. It’s not you, it’s me.
Really ‘S’ could we work this out? Oh, don’t look at me like that. I didn’t do it to purposely hurt you. It’s not like I’m going to cut you out of my life. In fact sometimes I use one ‘s’ too many. Doesn’t that help make up for some of the times I’ve left you out.
Now, don’t glare at me. I know I’ve used you wrongly. Isn’t there any room in your heart for forgiveness?
Okay, I can’t talk to you when you’re like this. If you want to work things out you know where to find me. I really thought you could be more mature about this. That’ right walk away. I don’t need you anyway. I can do it without you. Will ee whoe writing uffer more.”
