That”s not me in the photo, but it”s definitely how I feel. Today when I made my first post I noticed every time I hit save I ended up with an extra apostrophe.
I thought it was something I”d done. (Silly me. Why”d I hit shift and put in quotes instead of apostrophes?)
Except, I quickly realized it wasn”t me. It”s adding them automatically. WTF? (Even if it”s right when I go to publish, it comes out doubled when it is published…ARGH!!!!!!!!!!)
So I went back and changed every sentence that used apostrophes to a structure that wouldn”t need them. Hence, the result was a very proper sounding post. Not the more casual way I like to write.
I then searched for a solution. I came across a blog about how to fix the problem in a WordPress forum. It seems to be a super post. Great info. But I don”t understand how to implement any of it. I left a comment and hope he”ll get back to me with some suggestions.
Until then, please bear with me. There might be double apostrophes in a number of my posts until I get the matter resolved!
Or I may be writing and avoiding apostrophes. At any rate, now you know why.
Dang it! And I have a bunch of fun things I want to write about today. I don”t want them all to be marred by this punctuation plague!!! Why is it every time I”m super excited about something I have freaking hiccups like this to deal with? &*&^%!!!!!!
Courtney Mroch is a globe-trotting restless spirit who’s both possessed by wanderlust and the spirit of adventure, and obsessed with true crime, horror, the paranormal, and weird days. Perhaps it has something to do with her genes? She is related to occult royalty, after all. Marie Laveau, the famous Voodoo practitioner of New Orleans, is one of her ancestors. (Yes, really! As explained here.) That could also explain her infatuation with skeletons.

Hi Atrueoriginall!
YES, YES, YES! I found those same forums and the same link, but I am not savvy enough to understand how to make the fix. It’s SOOOO frustrating. But I think I may have found someone who can help me so…keep your fingers crossed that maybe by next week I’ll be fixed.
THANKS so much for trying to help me out!!!!
