I don't know what surprises me more

That I managed to write an entire rough draft without spelling errors or that "squinchy" was already in my word processor's library.

I've found that phrases such as "I managed to write an entire rough draft without spelling errors" are the most effective spells I've ever found for summoning gremlins to insert errors into the final draft.

They might be satisfied with substituting 'library' for 'dictionary', though.
