A Thought: On the Burdens of Being Literate

It secretly makes me smugly happy that I sometimes have to Google a word to make certain I'm not making it up because it's not in the built-in dictionary for whatever spellchecker the program in which I'm typing happens to be running.

On the other hand, not only have I had genuine, out-loud arguments with the squiggly red lines, but I've felt inappropriately superior to them when I've been right.

I may spend too much time alone.
