I've decided my brain is not working any longer. I'm following some posts and everytime I see my own posts, there are words that aren't right or just chopped off.

"because" should have been "be careful"
"call" should have been "called" (I've been noticing I'm doing this alot lately).

It is amazing anyone can read my posts and have them make sense. Is this the beginnings of dementia?

I sometimes make those sorts of slips, it's usually because I'm thinking about what I'm about to write rather than what I'm writing now, and in my hurry I mix the words, or letters.

I read through things before posing it just in case. At work if I'm jotting a note down for a collegue I often have to write it a couple of times before I'm happy it's not too messy.

I usually proof them before posting. I just noticed the glaring problems after I hit submit.

I have noticed some of my posts get a little weird, too. Sometimes it is because I add a sentence in the middle after writing a lot. Sometimes it is just like what you said...my brain is malfunctioning!

I do that too. Usually it's either I'm thinking of the sentence faster than I can type OR it's the "straight-to-the point" part of my personality.

I do that too! though I tend to catch it in time.
Sometimes a 3 letter word is spelled backwords!
