Pet Peeve
« on: 02/16/0912:55PM »
If you are like most red blooded Americans, you have at least one pet peeve. For me, it’s simply the word (a lot). Now, I’m far from perfect and heck, you may even find an error or two in one of my post. Feel free to point it out to me and I will surely take note to correct it in the future. But, for now, this is about me and my pet peeve. The word a lot is NOT and I repeat, NOT one word. It is two and when spelled correctly should look like this, “a lot” not like this “alot” Ok, now that I’ve had my rant, forgive me, but this is such a common mistake, one that I use to make myself.  ;)Now, smile it’s almost spring!

That drives me crazy, too, along with a few others that I see frequently like "awhile".

Oh yes, the beloved "awhile". To use the word "for" or to not. This is the question.  ::)
