Grammar

Couldn't help telling a shop owner about an it's/its error on her sign this weekend. I always wonder if I should... But she mentioned the quote on her sign and I figured, well, since we were on the subject... I tried to be extra gentle, but it was still awkward. I think at first it was fine and then I just kept talking and trying to give her a trick on remembering which is which...
Overall, I thought it did go relatively well and I managed to tell her without insulting her (she blamed the book that she had copied the quote out of and I agreed that it must be a publishing error). But... I'm just not good at that kind of stuff. Tricky conversations, that is. Small talk in general. Man am I ever on a roll lately.
