Husband's are the best proofreaders
It’s great when my husband reads my blog and it’s even better when he points out my typos. It’s not so great when the post has already been up all day so that everyone can see how stupid I am before he kindly points it out.
Somehow yesterday’s post said “. . .wore holding little beads. . .” instead of wire. Not sure how that happened as I swear I stopped typing with my toes ages ago. So, I told my husband how clueless I was that the error got by spellchecker. No I rambled on and cursed spellchecker for not catching that error I mean really, and I promise I am telling the absolute truth on myself, when I say these words tumbled from my mouth. Are you ready?
I said, “So, that must be a word huh?”
To which my husband responded, I kid you not, while his eyes envisioned antennea sticking out of my head, he said, “Duh! Well yeah, ‘I wore socks on my feet.”
It’s great I have a husband to point out my stupidity so I can laugh at myself; how would I live without him?
This made me laugh. It sounds like a conversation my hubby and I would
have. Lisaaaa, is there any chance you could write something about
photography for my new blog? It's at www.dpgearguide.com - the husband and
I are doing this together. Maybe you and/or your hubby would like to write
something for it? :D I'd link back to you from what you've written, and on
the list of contributors we're keeping on the sidebar. We really want to
make the blog grow. No pressure though, it's only if you have the time. Let
me know? :D
Yay for Hubbys! Mine just rolls his eyes & says I tell the blog world too
much. Good luck finding that cow, too.
I changed the url. I didn't like the first one. It's at
beyondmegapixels.com now. :D
LoL Aren't they a joy? I hate when I typo with real words. I am really bad
at that.
I hate that when I make mistakes and catch them after everyone in the whole
world has read it. When I do my posts, I type it pretty fast, then I go
back and proof read and change sentences around and take the 'with' off the
end of the sentence. I hate it when Sirdar reads over my shoulder while I
am typing it up since my first draft only remotely resembles my final
draft. You are good to be able to laugh it off, I am just too insecure,
but I am working on it.
Last week, my husband read my blog and pointed out that I'd misspelled a
word. He insisted on standing behind me while I correct it, which I think
made me nervous because I went ahead and misspelled the word in exactly the
same manner. I am afraid to try to spell the word now - it was pilgrimage.
I spelled it pigrammage. Guess what he's been calling me for a week? :)
You are lucky your husband reads your blog! Mine thinks it is stupid and a
complete waste of time. Obviously I don't listen to him!
tee hee And I've *never* done anything like that!!!
