The muse just scolded me, (although very gently), for not proof reading my blog enough. I seem to have misspellings every now and then, (well, a lot actually). Frankly by the third reading and checking for errors I’m pretty sick of the entry. Plus now I’m just winging it.
You see, I create this magical mess by first composing in LibreOffice Writer. I reread and correct after that. I print it out and read/correct it again. Then I post to the blog and reread it and re correct. You would think by this time it would be picture perfect. But, no….. Somewhere between printing and posting I have again acquired typos, grammatical mistakes and either too much punctuation or not enough.
So, I have reconciled myself to this and now consider it part of the Magical Mess charm. Sorry if this bothers some of you English majors but it’s not called “mess” for nothing. I am what I am, (there’s a classic form of tautology) and am continually trying to improve.
Here’s to the future and maybe, just maybe, a clean pure document. (It would make the muse so happy.) Don’t count on it, though; just be surprised by it.
