I noticed the erroneous contraction as well, but decided to forgo the identification of the same lest I incur a similar error myself. Such as failing to capitalize the first letter in the one word sentence "sheesh" in the above correction.

LOL! Should you have used a full-stop period between "myself" and "Such"?

Wait, should I have put the question mark inside or outside of the end quote?

Stupid grammar! I intentionally put the "sheesh." quote in the middle of my corrective sentence above because I was not sure what to do if I ended on the the same word as a question.

Would it be"
"sheesh."?
or
"sheesh.?"

If I put the ? inside of the "sheesh.", should I change it's italicization?

Would it be
"sheesh.?"
or
"sheesh.?"
