    I have spotted a spelling grammer cop, I hope she hasnt seen me. And there isnt a block user in here.
    DAMN

     

    1. grammar
    2. run-on sentence
    3. hasn't
    4. started a sentence with "and"
    5. isn't

     

    How's that?

      Flippy, I don't have a spellcheck with IE and I'm from Texas. I'll do the best I can.

        He wasn't talking about me, but he left the door wide open, so I couldn't resist. Wink

          real authors have started sentences with prepositions since forever though. they also use less to refer to lesser quantities of discretely quantifiable amounts - that particular suggestion was made fairly recently, in the 18th century, very tentatively in fact, and so i'm annoyed people have tried to make it a rule. especially when there are examples of writers (including royalty) using less that way dating back to the 10th century.

            I just wanted to put a disclaimer out there now. I'm trying to appear educated.

                BTW - Hi runmomto3boys I take it you have 3 Boys or you just like to run to moms with three boys?

                 

                I do: three boys 5 and under!  Nice to meet ya! 

                 

                I'm unlocking my log; apparently, everyone is doing it. 

                  BCR, 

                   

                  Things move fast.  I could never keep up which is why I mostly lurk.  By the time I'm ready to jump into a conversation, it is over. Cry

                   

                  Thanks for the welcome.   I've used the log for most of the last year but had never ventured into the forums.

                      BCR, we're all in this together!  Smile

                       

                      Sometimes I can keep up, sometimes not...life!

                      not lazy, just tired

                        Hi BCR, don't worry about keeping up. God knows I've never been able to. I just poke my head in and post randomly here and there. And yeah, I'm staying here. Don't miss that other place.

                        Not if it makes sense.

                           thanks-- now I feel at home. at that other place I would have been mad Smile

                            Crap. The real runners have unlocked logs?? I'm fine with that except I'd actually have to LOG on RA. I may have to delete my Endomondo account although it means losing my international hunky cheerleader squad...I mean, it's not like anyone here will encourage me with a "misty, you have awesome km in your legs" comment.

                              You could do both, Misty. Really.

                                Yes, but I log on Endo, DailyMile and in an old school running journal. This would make FOUR logs, plus the miles I have to log onto the winter running game and Miles game. Too much logging!!
