Just a little vent

While posting on someone's blog I encounter a comment tht I am pretty sure was intented for me. Basically it was a comment about how people who do not check posts for typos and then edit and rewrite do not care about what they write. This really bothered me. IT bothered me becausd I know that my posts alwas have typos and always have misspellings. Do I care about my posts? Most definatly. Am I a bad speller? YEs! Why then do I not go back and reread and edit. Well it is quite simple. I can't. I have a blind eye. I can only see out of my right eye. My left is useless. Since I only have one eye to use it gets very tired doing the work of two eyes. I am very prone to mistakes in typing because my eye can not keep up with my fingers, where a normal seeing person uses 2 eyes to read with I only use one, which means that I read at half the pace. I also tend to reverse spellings of words, and sometimes totally mess things up but I usually do not notice this as I type. If I had to constantly go back and re read every thing then I would never get anything done. I get bad headaches after a short time typing and reading. I am so sorry that this is coming out as self pity, I am just so frustrated at the comment, when it was so untrue... I do care about what I write....it isn't my fault that my typing is terrible.....I hope that this gets passed on to the one who made the comment, I know one of my readers will know who I am referring to.

Kim,

tell them to blow it out of their asses and shut the hell up.

If they don't like it, they don't have to read it.

They are not the blog police.

Don't let them fuck with you.
