I'm such a failure

My daughter just asked me to spell diahroia diahhroea diarrhoia diarrhoea. I couldn't do it, and here I am writing.

My degree's in pure mathematics, and I can't add either. Come to think of it, I play guitar but can't recognize intervals. Am I seeing a trend here?

Diarrhea is totally unspellable. It was obviously made up by an angry person with diarrhea.

I have to google every other word when I write to make sure I am spelling it correctly. And I usually have to have a calculator when doing mathematics of any kind. Math is hard. Let's go shopping.
