Stupid question for today folks

[Mom]

How come a person that usually spells instinctively and reasonably well (shut up Hitcher) and can generally string together a coherent sentence without trouble, finds even simple words impossible to spell and good grammar impossible when typing an email to apply for a job? I mean what is with that??

[Mikkel]

What's the job?

[James Deuce]

Yeah, what's the job? Can I have it?

[Mom]

What's the job?

Not telling you might gazump me to it...LOL

Nah, just a 20 odd hour a week, PA/CS role to tack into my other bits and pieces, but seriously mate what is with having to check how to spell marketing :scratch:

You may just be a bit tuckered out after a hard day, Mom!
Get Maha to cook his own eggs tonight! :)

Ah I see, I thought you'd been reading a substandard job application. (and not your own I mean) ;)

Could be:
An off day?
A tiny wee bit of pressure?
A desire to be correct?

I often find that my spelling is better if I don't spend too much time thinking about whether it is correct or not. When you start thinking whether you've spelled it right or wrong you can easily derail yourself - bit like riding a bike in that way I suppose.

You mean like when you're focusing on a word too much and it starts to not make sense? I passed with top marks in my English exam last year but in the same year I sat for half an hour trying to spell "Hammer". Maybe I'm just yet to be diagnosed with a brain tumour, though

spelling is one of the first things to go when you age considerably.

I love stupid questions... they deserve more respect...sadly, after the laughter dies down to a mere rumble... you realise... you should have kept your mouth shut. Almost as sadly, stupid answers come readily to me...

DO YOU TEXT..... ??? if the answer is yes... there's your answer.:sunny:

I aged inconsiderately.

Happy anniversary.

Brain fade?
One too many wines?
Aging?
Brain still in holiday mode?

Happy Anniversary!
I do hope the patrons at the Bridge House were well behaved, unlike that time you took us there:msn-wink:
