{Image of my computer screen}It’s like the mirrors in the dressing rooms at department stores. I always find at least one weird typo (that spell check didn’t catch) or an extra word or a grammar error right after I publish a post. It doesn’t matter how fast I click “edit post” to fix it… Google Reader takes it and plasters it all over your Readers like the paparazzi with a bad Brittney photo.
I spelled Laurent (in Yves Saint Laurent) with an “A” instead of “E.” It has been changed. I’m sorry for the disrespect to YSL and for making you read such a mistake. I don’t know why I can’t catch minor mistakes like this BEFORE I hit the publish button. Why doesn’t Google Reader recognize edits?

I find that really annoying as well!
Good news – I scrolled down in Reader when I read this post, and the subject line was spelled properly! Perhaps it makes edits after all?
i’m a grammar and spelling crazy person, so when i do this i want to kick myself. and then it’s impossible to correct without everyone knowing!
I HATE THIS! Mine does it too and it’s so annoying! I hate it when I see it on other’s blogs, (though I didn’t read your first post until this one so no worries) and I hate it when I find one on my own blog!
I am a stickler for grammar, so I am very annoyed when I screw up. I go crazy when I misspell something and don’t catch it in time.
I feel your pain! I am always finding mistakes that I made after the fact. I am not a big fan of Blogger spellcheck!!
This happens to me allllll the time and makes me feel like such a fool. Don’t feel bad, blogger gets the best of all of us sometimes.
I hate it when that happens! It really does take FOREVER to get fixed, ick! Oh well, we all know that you are a smartie anyways, so don’t worry!!
This always bugs me too!! You’re not alone!
