I’m in Phoenix. First blog post from an airport. I’m rushing, so it’s got me thinking about typos. Which is really awesome given the main thing I want to post about here.

One worry about blogs is that you may rush yourself and publish too quickly. You’re bound to miss typos. Sometimes I’m bad with the typos. I try to tell myself that this is OK. Most of my substantive blog posts are rough drafts anyway, and I’ve already managed to throw together a couple of rough drafts from philosophy posts on this blog. Which is awesome awesome because I’ve only had this blog running for about 3 months now.

So I think, “Get the ideas up here, and worry about the typos later.”

It’s OK to have some typos in your blog posts (or so I tell myself).

Now for my real point. Below is not an OK context for typos.

   haha, that’s comical. Kind of ironic, no?

   I think typos are all right, as long as you don’t forget to double- and triple-check your work (sometimes I’m guilty of spacing and skipping this).

   Have a safe trip and have lots of fun! See you later, Andy.
