Can You Spell Mystery?

It's been awhile since I last set down to put fingers to keyboard and write something.  I'm grateful that I can type at all.  Wish I could spell better though.  A quick funny story...I took leave from work on Friday (September 13th, 2013).  I don't know if you work in an office, but where I work, we used email extensively to communicate throughout our organization.  Since I was planning to be off work, I prepared an "out of office" message.  When someone sends me an email, they automatically receive a response with a pre-arranged message that I wrote earlier.  Well, my message announced that I wouldn't be there on Friday because I was going to a "mistery" writer's conference.  Yes, I typed M.I.S.T.E.R.Y.  Not Mystery.  I'm sure the people who got that message are probably thinking, "he should have gone to a spelling conference." instead.  It dawned on my Friday morning  that I had made the spelling mistake, but I wasn't going to go back into the office just to change that.  Oh well.
