There is definitely a processing glitch in my brain about left-right in terms of VERBAL automaticity... that is, I can do it VISUALLY just fine, but there is always a little hiccup when I hear left or right and have to determine which that is.

Oddly, I'm like a human compass and watch, though-- NO problem telling north-- anywhere-- and I'm often within a few minutes of the correct local time, even without any external cues.

The left-right thing is bidirectional, too-- so if I'm giving directions TO someone else, or writing them, I have to pause and figure out which VISUAL direction represents which.

I have very pronounced cross-dominance/ambidexterity. No known learning disability, though.
