You know you've been working too long on your company's blog when ...

When trying to try in a blog web address, you type part of it as ".blogpost.com" instead of "blogspot.com."

I feel like I've written a lot of emails with the words "blog post" to the blog editor recently at work. Today's the first time I've "mispelled" the URL that way.

Editor's Note

Today I wrote my first editor's note (a short, often italicized introduction to an article)! I was asked to "set up" an excerpt as an article and noticed that the last time that we did that we had an editor's note. By the time  I was done writing it, I found I could tie the whole thing to a news article from a couple days ago. It felt great. It'll publish next month.

I'm thrilled that I got to write one. I guess because the word "editor" is in "editor's note" and I wrote it. So I'm an editor then, right? And I'm also still amazed when anything I write gets published.
