ok. I am a bloomin' fool. That was supposed to be a comment to Buckeye back on page 2! It seems a little out of context as I look at it now, duh! I swear I used to be smarter:ponder:
 
haha wow. i just read over my last post. i came back after writing and decided to click post and go to sleep. i was exhausted. i had a partial and i guess my hand was just running over the letter. i have no idea
 
as an adult you have to get used to urinating on yourself, and continuing at least part of your day in wet pants.
 
You spend so much of your time on the pavement and never find a pound/dollar.
 
When I start stuttering and people say it's ok. Before they just thought I was stupid. Actual comment!
 
If you've ever stapled your jammies to the mattress because you were convinced that you were going to float up to the ceiling like a balloon and pop on the acoustic flocking.


gr33nr0se, I know exactly what you mean by the rubber glove thing... my aura includes the smell of bleach.
 
when you walk into the eyeglass place with your glasses, and they just call you the friday afternoon challenge.
 
When a whole hallway has to be blocked off and everyone changing classes has to be redirected because the ambulance is here to get you.

When EMTs come to speak at your school's heath fair and you know 2 of the 3 of them very well

You come back to on the floor of your schools gym and the entire group of people you were having a conversation with is just staring at you frightened.

When your brother suspiciously goes and takes your pill case out of the cabinet because he's not sure you were telling the truth about taking them this morning.

When as a teenager you didn't want to listen to your mother, and as you ignored her all you heard was Wah, wah, wah wah wah... (like in charlie brown)

As an adult you want to listen to your mother, but because of a seizure all you can hear and understand is Wah, wah, wah wah wah...

When people begin to suspect you have a serious illegal drug problem due to your pill popping morning,noon and night.
 
You know you have E when you get loose from your restraints and casually walk naked down the hospital corridor. :oops:

when you leave the house in the morning with your shirt on inside out and backwards, and the autistic boy at your bus stop looks at you and says "oh no! did you have a seizure this morning?!?!" when you ask why, he points out your shirt issue. :)

EDIT: I was explaining to Tony my seizures, and to put it in terms he understands I told him I do funny things when I have had/having a seizure. He thought my shirt was funny so he remembered what I told him. Lol So I had to re-explain it to him differently.
 
Oh Rae that was great. Its ok my friend with no health problems went around all day last week with her dress on inside out. She even had a botox treament like that.

you have a seizure on the way to the bike shop, you are so messed up by the time you get there you have clue what you are supposed to be doing, so you just pick somthing up and do it, and decide by the time you are fully conscious, you can finish what you are doing or find something else to do.
