What a difference an "a" makes.

Something funny happened today as I began to update my blog.  It was pointed out to me that on my "about me" section of this page I had misspelled "woman" by making the word plural--women.  This of course is not a misspelling on its own, but when it is in reference to my wife it conveys an entirely different meaning both about her and myself.
It is interesting that no one had pointed this out sooner since my blog has been up for over a year.  Should I assume that no one is reading this or that everyone is as quick a reader as I am?  I'll choose the latter.

Here is that which I did:
Upon reaching the odd word, "women," I interpolated a "one of the" before the series of nice adjectives that preceded "women."

Just in case you really wanted to know, you know?

There is always a third alternative: I know who you are are and what you're about, so I didn't bother reading the "About Me" section.
