My problem is that even if I click once my game places two of the same block. I'm wondering why it is doing this.
It's a common issue (especially on laptops, including mine), if you look at the F3 screen you'll notice spikes in usage when placing or mining blocks. This can cause java to hang up for a moment during block placement, and it'll interpret one click as two.
Solutions: turn visual settings down (turning off smooth lightning usually does a lot) or right-click really fast (not repeatedly, just click once and get off the button as fast as possible). Sounds strange, but I swear it helps.
It really depends on your PC specs as to what helps, if nothing else try killing off some background processes as well.

Yes I do use a wireless mouse and I do have a laptop
I have that very issue. It's just lag, and not just with blocks. It can happen with anything, even doors. Click to open and the door slams back in your face cause you 'clicked it twice' or plant a torch and get two (or even three) set down.
I hate it when working with glass/glowstone and you plunk an extra down.
But yeah, it's lag, and not confined to laptops. My desktop does it to on rare times and it's a hefty gaming machine with 8 gigs of ram.
That happens to me, but only in brief moments of lag.

I run off a fast laptop though, so I rarely lag.
I take it you use a laptop?
