In elementary school, I was often the last one standing in the spelling bees. I was good at spelling. (But then there was the part where I was the last one standing on that stupid line in the gym when nobody would pick me for their team in gym class because I was so uncoordinated and would duck whenever a ball came my direction. Sorry. I digress. But I'm still not over it.)
Anyway, I will not tell anybody the score that I just got. I was stunned. I guess I am officially a slack-jawed, glassy-eyed spellchecker addict.
Well, islandgal, this is just great. First my hair tries to turn gray. Then parts of me decide to get a little chubby. And then! And then! I find out that I cannot even spell anymore. And, I'm still not coordinated. Just great, islandgal. Just great. That test was fiendish. All those double letters everywhere. I sure am glad my score is not flashing in bright lights somewhere on TOTV......Is it?

My gosh, Boomer's post is me to a "T".
I was also the winner of spelling bees and never picked for sports. I am also now getting gray, chubby ... and now I find out ... Eye cantt evan speal anie moore.

I'm glad the clocks are being turned back today. Think I'll go back to bed and get some more sleep.
