 I need a logophile.  Someone who knows how to spell ridiculous and has an ounce of grammar.  Someone not me!  This is sad.  I need someone addicted to words, not reading or books.  None of my friends can understand how I have managed to offend a word.  "Words don't have emotions or brains, so how can you offend one?"  Insert mental "dots" here.

It's my thing.  Each word is accompanied by a subconscious memory that reminds me when and how I learned that word.  Then, the word is special and is taken care of.  By offending the word, I offend myself and my memories.  Therefore, it HURTS when I offend a word, and yes, it is possible to offend a word.  At least, in Avren's world it is.

P.S.  Not sure if this was the exact words or not, but it's the general gist: this is not how you spell "half hearted," this is how you spell "half-hearted."

P.P.S.  If you don't know how to spell a word, or you can't find the proper word, a dictionary or thesaraus work absolute wonders.

P.P.P.S.  Thank you Tygati and Tygati's friend who I am working on reading next.  You have saved from a depression caused by mistakes in printed books sold in Barnes & Noble... seriously, don't they proof-read those thousands of times?  How can you miss those!  So, once more, thank you from the bottom of my heart for proof-reading and being truly literate.
