I am so OCD!

Why do people's typographical errors bother me so?  It's so bad, that eveyone at work asks me to proof read their emails  and letters to be sent out, for them.  LOL  I know I make enough of them myself, but it's usually because my fingers move faster than my brain sometimes.  It just drives me CRAZY to see highly educated people make so many mistakes just spelling words.  Usually it's something that can't be detected even with spell check.  Okay,  just one of my many quirks.  Thanks for letting me get that off my chest.  Everyone have a wonderful and blessed evening.

I'm the same way--like when so many folks use 'loose' instead of 'lose'.....

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one with this "quirk."  

I have always prided myself in my spelling abilities, but I have noticed myself using "their" when it should be "there" and other obvious errors while typing on the computer.  I've noticed others doing this and it has driven me up the wall, and then I started doing it!!  But, thank goodness I think I catch my errors before hitting submit.  When I don't, I do Quick Edit!!

I think it has something to do with the computer.  I never had this problem before the computer.  What is your take on this?  Any opinion or thoughts on the subject? 

Christ's peace,
