It brings you down, spelling so many words wrong in a row, and having to go up and do it again. At least I was a little witty. She defined “haubergeon” as a ‘a sleeveless coat of mail.’ “For summer wars?” I asked.

I stopped the madness by saying “I WILL TAKE THE DRINK TICKET INSTEAD OF THE GIFT CERTIFICATE” but the lady thought i was pretty cool and gave me the gift certificate afterwards and I gave her the drink ticket. So… we were 2nd and 3rd, whichever you’d like me to be this week.
I also got a banana Tootsie Roll Pop from grandfather, which is weird. I bet it’s gross.

MAN, it is painful to have to keep spelling after you get so many wrong. I ended up in 3rd place. Robert was once again victorious, good job Robert.
The guy from Everclear was there, which was slightly surreal like a boring dream. I got 3rd place and a drink ticket.
