Maybe you've had one of those days at school when you just can't read or write. Not because you don't want to, but because you're having a terrible day and you just can't get the words right no matter how hard you tried. The next day, however, it would probably be back to normal, and you could read just fine. There are some people who never escape that and they live with that "terrible reading day" for forever.
