I can't even bring myself to use texting shortcuts; it goes against my very nature.<br /><br />I love those times when my writing surprises me (in a good way or in a 'I forgot I wrote that' way) because it makes the down times easier to manage.Barbara Watsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06547166495514562286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83528601653366510.post-39508695575331803522012-05-02T18:19:01.431-04:002012-05-02T18:19:01.431-04:00Yea, we each have our issues.

I wonder if they both came from the same source though. People trying to text and tweet quickly and can't be bothered to spell anything or change to capitals. I have people make fun of me because I use apostrophes while texting. I just CAN'T leave them out intentionally.<br /><br />Thanks, she will at the end. :)S.P.
