Sending a text to the wrong person and wrong words.
 
This is something new to me. I've been sending text messages to the wrong people (so embarrassing) and I'm also writing the wrong words when I text and reply to or create threads. For instance, I was trying to tell my ex-fiance about something weird that happened to me last night and I ended up sending it to my mom. I'm usually careful about things like that lol. Also I will write stuff on here and when I proof-read i'll find that I've completely swapped out words that don't even fit...like "So I went to the tonight last night" or something like that. I usually catch it in the act, not when I read over it before sending/posting.

Frustrating. I've always prided myself on good spelling and writing skills.

Oh well!!! :)

I hope one day I don't send a "Brett Favre" to the wrong person, hahaha.

Um, I can think of an EASY way to prevent that from happening: don't take pics like that??

Haha, maybe. I just hope he doesn't accidentally send one to me.

I'll have to refer him to a neurologist for an evaluation!!!

Seriously, I have noticed too that I make a lot more typos, misspeak more when talking, and just have trouble finding the words I want. I'm an English teacher, and this is NOT an area I'm used to struggling with.

You should see some of my emails. Even I didn't know I knew words like that.

I have the same issues. Its frustrating. I started words with friends and that is helping my spelling. English and reading was my strongpoint...now not so much.

Yup it sure is frustrating not having words at your fingertips like you are used to. I play in a band and the other day heard myself singing 'how could luch a sovely girl give me love?'.......(supposed to be 'how could such a lovely girl give me love?') It is frustrating but you do get some funny moments - and laughter is golden with PCS isn't it!!
