I beg forgiveness!

Yikes, I beg forgiveness for the silly typos I've made (e.g. where instead of wear, oops!) My -lame- excuses include having a spell checker only meant to check russian spelling/grammar and feeling the need to rush to write these postings on my host's office computer while she tried to keep herself busy doing other things. I especially beg forgiveness from my mother -the grammar queen-
Mom, at least you can take solace in knowing that I am aware of my errors and lack of proof-reading. SORRY!
