I think in an accent sometimes after watching a movie/TV show...and I now permanently use British spelling after years of reading English classics. I have to force myself not to when it's necessary. In fact I got a full letter grade knocked off my first essay in one class in college because of the British spelling. The professor wrote on the top of the page "You're in America now." Of course, I've never been OUT of America, lol....
That essay incident ticked me off so it fits here anyhow.
I wound up dropping that class.
