For example: vomited/vomitted/ incontinence/incontinance/ transvestite…ok that word just looks like it’s spelled wrong.
“Why would one need to know how to spell these words correctly?” you might ask. Well I will tell you. It’s quite simple really. I don’t want to look like an idiot. In the words of the infamous yet hence departed Arugala(sp?) Queen
Don't walk the "I'm-So-Educated" walk if you can't type out an "I'm-So-Educated" type e-mail. Got it? I prefer to contact people privately rather than a group response anyway so little snarkies like me won't tear apart my e-mails. <-------Admission Of My Own Ignorance--Ignorance That I Prefer To Hold Close To My Bosom Rather Than Showcasing!

I ♥ the Arugula Queen BIG TIME!
Spelling is HUGE to me! I'm the spelling expert in my family, but when I'm not completely sure, I do what my family is too lazy to do (haha)...I consult the dictionary!
There are some blogs I am almost afraid to comment on because the bloggers are big grammar people, and I, while I enjoy good grammar, am no expert.
Sorry who is this? You commented on my blog and I can't seem to find a picture of you or your name on yours!!
you've been texting too much, where spelling doesn't count or matter. texting uses olde timey shorthand...a skill taught in the old days and it can mess with spelling skills.

and I ask chocolate or potato?
"I feel like since I've been working at my present job that my intelligence has rapidly decreased..."
That sums up how I feel most days. And I've been a sahm mom for over a decade. I watch Jeopardy & do crosswords in hopes that they'll help. But, alas, most days my brain is just fried. Sixth grade math, anyone?? I do, however, know lots of Disney trivia. Does that count?
I'm the speller at our house.
Yes, I miss her...but I've still got EWBL for the days that end in "Y" ;)
Spelling is a big deal to me as well, and the dictionary is my number two friend. The number one friend? Thesaurus.
Heff- I admittedly will snark a little at other people's bad grammar, but you might have noticed I'm not perfect either.
This is me confessing hypocrisy...hippochrissie? ;)
Cait- Sorry to be all super secrety and stuff, but I prefer the anonymity on the blog. ;)
Lady- I beg your pardon but even when I was t9 texting I would enter full sentences with correct punctuation...the jury's still out on the grammar though. Since I have a full keyboard there's no excuse for not doing that either...
6th grade math totally counts! I don't know that I could still do it. Give me a pencil and I'll work it out...;)
i has no porblems with speallin at all.
or grammer.
