I'd love to know what dislexia is like. I ought to study up on it. 
it's really annoying, actually. my mind likes to reverse letters and sometimes numbers and I have to constantly "rehearse" what I need to say before I say it.
which is why I hate talking on the phone and well, talking in general. it's Exhusting!
whenever someone gives me a phone number I have to repeat the number about 5 times to make sure I have it right.
strangely, I've never had a big problem with math. and one has to use algebra with animation all the time. and I have no problems there, either. (well, I use a calculous to save time. but my point is that i can do these things without making mistakes).
well, it's a giant pain, but it's the way my brain works and there's nothing I can do about it. you just have to spend alot of time compensating. I'm sure many of my time-saving habits so well appreciated by bosses are a result of this "problem" and my having to learn to deal with it.
