I just realized something disturbing. I've suspected it for a while but it really hit me today. I have a bad case of exclamationitis!
That's right ladies and gentlemen, I am an overly obsessive and chronic exclamation point user!!!
I use it all the time, on facebook, on my blog, in e-mails (God help me even in the occasional work e-mails), and even in my own personal documents and to do lists. I can't help it. It's gotten so bad that I can barely finish a sentence without pulling one out (let alone two or three)!
Apparently, it's an absolute no no in well thought of writing manuals and books. But even though I'm well aware of this fact, I still pull it out at a drop of a hat. Somehow I think that I am except from the rule because what I'm saying is really really exciting and is in desperate need of one of those shapely vertical lines atop a perfect sphere.
Any treatment ideas are welcome.
