When dad used to proof read my stuff, he'd read it and say "take out half the commas" But he does the same thing when he writes.

Well, I'm tired tonight... was up too late last night, and it feels like it :~\

Rosie... we won't watch LOST tonight... DVR should catch it, we can watch it tomorrow if you want :~)

Sounds good. I also obtained cookies already, just in case. ;-)

Dashes are my favorite overused punctuation mark. I use 'em a lot more than I should when writing stories and that.

Wow! Sounds like a fun job...hope you two get it.

Teaching writing is hard. In a few years, I'm gonna want to find a place that will grade thegirl's writing. I'm afraid I'll miss something that a "real" English teacher will catch.
