I can spell. Really, I can.

I’m at work, but I’ll be damned if I’m going to do anything productive today. They’ve sucked me dry the last two and a half weeks, and they owe me a day of goofing off.

So, I thought I’d post my “Misspellings Document”. A little M$ Word document that I keep open at all times, just in case I can’t remember how to spell a word. Sometimes I get it right, others I don’t, but Word’s spell-checker is my crutch. I’ll spare you from the whole thing, as some words are actually repeated and it’d be way too long, but this is page 8:

Yes, I really am this stupid. Just thought you all might get a kick out of seeing just how much. :wink:

Anyway, what can you not spell?

Spelling is overated.

I am so not a fan of spelling – especially spelling aloud. I end up getting all confused and I can’t remember what I’ve said and I end up having to write it out anyway. Of course, this doesn’t stop my roommate from asking me how to spell things when she’s writing a paper.

Sample conversation from last night:
My Darling Roommate: Hey, Jess? How do you spell “indubitable”?
Me: Um… I - N - D - U… Hmm… Can’t you just say “unquestionable” instead?

(By the way, after writing it down, I figured out how to spell “indubitable.” Yay me! :wink: )
