The importance of one little 'e'.

Yes, I am a newbie blogger, yet I am also a writer and an editor.  I am, generally, a bit of a nitpicker with a somewhat 'Monkish' need to take care of the things that are slightly out of kilter: difficult sentences, misspelled words, awkward graphics, tilted frames...

Well, quite unnoticed by me, an extra 'e' wandered into the URL of my blog.  I now realize why people were having a hard time finding my blog when I told them the address.  A very ungrammatical and somewhat overused exclamation would fit here - Duh!  I feel as if I am wearing a rather large and heavy set of donkey ears.  The misplaced 'e' has now been sent on its way and my URL reads as it should have from the beginning.  

Hopefully, I have learned my lesson.  Check, check and recheck (and check again just to be sure).
