Dyslexia Acting Up

So, today I was discussing local wildlife with this guy up the street, and I went to say "I heard deer hooves the other night," and it came out "I had hood fears the other night."

What the hell is my subconscious worried about? Cars? Cobras? Parkas? Uncircumcised peckers?

At moments like this, I realize that, under my calm rationality, I just might be loon-crazy. I'm full of weirdness that, every once in a while, is bound to pop out.

I think I'll avoid tongue-twisters for the next few days.

Uncircumsized cobras in parkas driving past?

Put on a parka, and go out and cut an inch off of your tailpipe.
You'll sleep better.

Oh my lord, I can't stop laughing.

I've been doing this for several years. Speaking dyslexically, that is. My kids love to point it out to me. Red-faced, I deny it, but end up laughing with them. Hilarity reigns.

This made me laugh so much I was almost sick all over my computer.
