Wait. Chi, you've been GOING TO WORK?
Ummm....yeah....
Does your doctor know that?
Ummmm....no....
It's hard. I'm student teaching right now and trying to make a good impression and all that.
'Dirty Girls'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Thanks, Vortex. What are you still doing up? Is the uni closed again tomorrow?
nope, I'm just a night owl who doesn't know how to go to bed :)

Oh, honey. I'm so glad you stayed home, today. Stay home tomorrow, too. People make such a better impression when they don't have freaking pneumonia.

This is true. Particularly because I can barely talk right now. My voice has gone kaput because of all the coughing. Also, my students can sense my physical weakness and are taking advantage.
Seriously, I assigned 4 classes an essay on Tuesday to be completed for homework and due on Wednesday. Out of my 110-ish students, 30 turned them in. Thirty.
If you were writing to someone with a disability to tell them you had two sick people at home, would you use the word "cripples"? I'm not upset or angry, it just struck me as an odd word choice to use.
I had a totally romantical/lovey dovey (but not sexual, really) dream about Dwayne from Little Miss Sunshine last night. Except, he was this really odd hybrid between Dwayne and one of my exes.
Teppy, that's the best kind of doomed!
I just got back from visiting a preschool. I liked it. We can even afford it. It's all free-play learning and they don't even require potty training for 3 year olds. It appeals to my inner hippie.
Now to fill out the registration and hope there's a spot for Owen.

I agree it's an odd word choice. I suppose the bright side, if you can call it that, is that your friend doesn't equate you and your disability with "cripple." If s/he did, I'm certain s/he wouldn't have used that word.

How old is the person using the word?

Very good point.
