Humiliation!

I start picking on my sister with a new plan to pick on someone every week- and what do I get for it?  A big dose of karma!  My wife (finally) started to read my novel and what did she find?  A grammatical error!  She woke me up out of a sound sleep to point it out, so I wasn't sure if it really happened, but sure enough, it's there.  'You're' where it should say 'your'.  My biggest grammatical pet peeve and I did it myself.  That hurts!  How could the ten or so people that read it not notice?  How could I not notice?  I am shattered.

There- I just fixed it.  Consider this grammar snob humbled.

I noticed it, but I was going to wait until you got it published to point it out.
