The only spelling bee I was in, I misspelled "dictionary". I think I
was in third grade at the time. I remember being so angry with myself
afterwards, because I *knew* how to spell that word. But there were all
these people watching the spelling bee and I got flustered.

How very odd I can remember that but not what I wore last week...
