do you have a hard time spelling (or, have to stop and think about when you're writing them)?

"Whether"...or is it "wether"? And "tomorrow". I used to spell it with double "m", not double "r".

I keep dictionary.com bookmarked and have a dictionary app on my iPhone. I second guess myself and then get all confused. But then, I want to KNOW what it is, so I have to look it up.

Recipient. I have written it probably two HUNDRED times in the [very long] paper I have been writing for the past few weeks and almost every single time I write it I spell it incorrectly. I also have issues with "receive" and "Fahrenheit." My firefox has spell-check, though!

receive, calendar, definitely, and maybe a couple others. Thank God I have a mac that spell checks everything I type. It has really improved my spelling.
