@Sally H, I am the freakin queen of the ellipse. It’s so bad… I have to go back and check my blog posts to make sure I didn’t do it too many times!

I start sentences with “And” and “But” all the time. I too have a love-love-hate relationship with commas.

I don’t know what my fave rule to break is. Perhaps ending sentabces with prepasitions? Also my spelling could be better. Sometimes I slip into WoW speak and I want to lol and
My grammar pet peeve is ending every sentance with …
Did I leave you hanging? Yeah this crazy chick at work ends every sentance with an excess of periods. It drives me CRAZY!!

Oh geez, you mean there are rules for stringing words together?

Great, that explains a lot. *scampers off*

@ChristaCarol, I try SO hard not to do the starting a sentence with and or but thing… BUT sometimes it just MUST be done!

What if you don’t know most of the rules to know if you’re even breaking them? I kid, I kid. (or do I?) Mine would also probably be incomplete sentences. Or starting with “And” or “But”.

I’m surprised you didn’t end your blog with “Collaborate and listen…” And now the song is in my head for the night. Thaaaanks.

@Rhonda Cowsert, haha my thing is like I just sometimes am totally in love with commas and then others it’s like I don’t even know where the key is my computer… so I will have nineteen commaless pages… that makes for super fun editing!

I have a comma problem. I use them too often but not well. I also use incomplete sentences and occasionally begin sentences with conjunctions. *hanging head in shame*

@Lisa, my husband just said to me, I swear if you break out in that hammer dance one more time and yell “Stop! Grammar Time.” I’m leaving ’til Tuesday…
