I have a hard time whether people are joking or being serious when it comes to stuff like that. You're able to take it much better than I ever will.

Probably a huge part of that was most of my schooling was with autistic and other developmentally disabled kids. Regular kids never had much of a chance to tease or bully me. And my crazy cousin has always been insulting in a comical way, so that helps to.

While he was right to a certain extent (tho' we all knew my disability isn't so physical to warrant using that table), I still didn't like it.

Then, he went and used the same joke again when somehow we sat at the same table the next time we were there.

I liked it less the second time.

Sometimes someone who's a friend just doesn't get it, and starts doing stuff that isn't all that friendly. :?


That's when I say, "You, know I really don't think that's funny." And then they'll get the picture. It's okay to communicate your feelings instead of keeping them locked inside.

So ANYWAY -- I found this super cool mathematical algorithm to figure out the weekday on which people were born. So I ask people and then I tell them that the answer will come to me but sometimes it takes time. So I do the math at my leisure in my head and then suddenly say, "Oh, that was a Monday!"

SOOOOO, if anyone calls me disabled, I 1) tell them it hurts my feelings, and 2) tell them that I'm not disabled because I don't even need a calendar. :P

Today on the news a local woman was arrested because she got mad at something a co-worker said to her, and said "I ought to come back here and shoot up the place!"

She went to jail.

I didn't say anything about guns, but someone might still have felt uncomfortable about what I did say. That's why this post has been edited.
