I will NOT look at more fabric. I will stay away from quilt shops and Joanne's. I will NOT look at Hawthorne Threads, or E-Quilter, or Fat Quarter Shop. I will not even think of checking out Charmpacksplus, or Green Fairy Quilts or Fabric.com or Fabric Depot or Hancock's of Paducah or Missouri Star Quilt or anyplace else. I will stay away from Etsy fabric shops. I will NOT buy anything any more! I will not add any more online shops to my list. I will behave as a responsible adult.
You believe that? Sigh. I have an entire tub plus innumerable zip lock bags of fabric. I need Fabric Anonymous. I'm not looking, you bad enablers. Did you read that? No fabric for me any more. And forget responsibility. I'm 67; I don't have to act as an adult any more. I will be a curmudgeon. and not buy any more fabric. Did you hear me? No more!
Did you notice that innumerable has 2 "n" and only one "m"? I do love spell check; it's like recommendation. That one has 2 "m". why? The English language is such fun to spell. Good thing that I love it dearly. Wouldn't want to have any other language as my mother tongue.

The Yarnarian is a Grammarian.
I can't help it; these 2 things drive me batty"
The correct spelling is "separate"
There is no such thing as "I could of...". You can't "of" anything at all. You could "have" done something, however.
That's the entire post!
Carolyn pointed out "ink pen". What other kind of pen is there? A pencil?
Gramma Phyllis mentioned "can" and "may". I still use those two interchangeably.
Kay-From the Back Yard discusses pronunciation issues. If you ever have a chance, go and find a linquistic atlas of the east coast, and check out just how many different ways there are to pronouncing "Tuesday". Amazing!
Caffeine Girl has a thing about "fluke" and eighth grade kids. Ah the dreaded middle school kids. I remember them well. (The library is across the street from a middle school. Need I say more?)
KV mentions people saying "yeah, no" when they mean "no". This reminds me of episodes on the Vicar of Dibley when What's His Name keeps saying "yes, yes, yes, no".
