i've spent a lot of time worrying if i'm using the right usage of in/in to/into. so much in fact, i literally stay up at night thinking about it.

so i recently got Bill Bryson's book "Bryson's Dictionary of Troublesome Words: A Writer's Guide To Getting It Right," and it's seriously making me rethink the whole English major thing. There's so much little shit to remember (like when referring to the Sahara Desert, the "Desert" isn't necessary because it's redundant; Sahara already means desert).
