Just working on our grammar today.
When the statement is positive, it is correctly as...as.
...He is as competent now as he has always been.
...This is as good as it usually is.
...She is feeling as confident today.
...I am as tired now.
When the statement is negative, the first as changes to so.
...He is not so competent now as he has always been.
...This is not so good as it usually is.
...She is not feeling so confident today.
...I am not so tired now.
AND the word that is not correct in the position of the first as.
...I am not that tired. NO, NO, NO.
...I am not so tired.
Happy punctuating!
