my ordinary dropped letter
Ordinarily, I wouldn't mention it. Butt Maggie, you dropped a couple of letters.

It was my pre-coffee webcheck, thats my excuse and i'm sticking to it. (roll over a couple of times, hit power button, put in contacts, read, get coffee, shower). I make far more mistakes, mix of typos and spelling errors when i'm typing rather than writing, i think its a mix of subconscious lazyness knowing there is a spell checker normally and net english mental invasion (r u rdy 2 go 2nite?). Whereas on paper i usually spell correctly but drop letters from teh front of words or even entire words becase my brain goes faster than my hand. Thus, i'm screwed either way. Never actually learning to type probably doesn't help either.

Actually, it's a result of your hands going faster than your brain.

If my hand was going faster than my brain wouldn't i run of things to write rather than not being able to write them fast enough?
