Yeesh

You know you live in the twenty-first century when you write a word whose spelling you're unsure of, and you wait to see if a red line will appear under it indicating that you spelled it wrong.

Then you remember that you're using a pencil.

Yeah.

Lol...ironically enough...

I've actually done stuff like this too, though generally it involves having played too much World of Warcraft. I try not to draw aggro from people who seem a bit crazy and then notice random plants on the side of the highway and wonder if my herbalism skill is high enough to allow me to gather them.

Hehee...I emphathize...

Speaking as a terrible speller, I do that ALL THE TIME! The worst is when I am typing on the computer and trying to figure out the correct spelling on my own and I can't get the red line to disappear! Thus reinforcing the fact that I completely lacking in spelling skills. Ah, the wonders of technology.

PS I love how Joy carries things wherever she goes, like she can never have enough cool stuff around.

Heheheheh.

That reminds me of the time I watched a helicopter fly overhead and wondered idly whether it would poop on me.

Er.

You know, the way a seagull might.

And then I came to and realized that helicopters (surprise) DON'T POOP.

Hee. Hee. I have a couple of words that are always my nemesis (what is the plural of nemesis?) and I'm afraid to try and even write them without my computer. I won't tell you these words now because there is no spell check in the comment section.

I read your "redhead" bit from a year ago. I finally let my hair go closer to its natural color (not all the way, I'm not ready to age that much yet) and it is kind of a dark barely red brown. I can't believe the attention this color has gotten me. I must admit: I really love it.
