Accept or expect? Except didn't cut it.

My bad. I think I got carried away with the "e"s in that sentence and temporarily lost my mind.

It's buffering. You send the text to type to a cerebral buffer to type it while your foremind continues to compose new material. The buffer does aural language processing and chooses a homophonic substitution.

My buffering goes into high gear when I speak to an audience, I can compose later material while apparently focusing on the nuances of delivery. I never stutter when public-speaking but the defect that made me a (largely healed) stutterer allows me to run two verbal tracks at once.

I was wasted as a programmer.

The way you write it was obviously a minor brain glitch.
