Today, I was chatting with Daniel about a fender bender/traffic where we had both driven. And I mentioned that there was an ambulance there when I had passed. -- I didn't get why there was one there at all. Everyone seemed fine, and there was little to no damage to the cars. Maybe since there were 4 cars involved, it's protocol or something.
Well, anyway, there was an ambulance. And I was typing that word. And I misspelled it. I put an "lence" instead of a "lance." And that made me remember...
My fourth grade spelling bee. The word AMBULANCE got me. I "lenced" it then. And I was out of the bee. And ever since then, I've had problems with all my "lances" and "lences" - especially that one. Guess it's just a mental block of the trauma of misspelling that word in front of a crowd. Well, traumatic for fourth grade.
