{{{{{sj}}}}}. So sorry, and I'm happy to administer long distance shin kicks for you where applicable.
Yes. Men like sports. Men watch the action movie, they eat of the beef, and enjoy to look at the bosoms. A thousand years of avenging our wrongs and that's all you've learned?

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
sj, some people are so callous. I'm sorry you have to deal with that.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I'm so very sorry, sj. All my love and prayers to you and TCG and the little one, whatever the outcome, and, God, how completely awful about the back-and-forth with the NP and your doctor and how badly she mishandled communication with you.
I will happily beat up for you any and all thoughtless people who warrant it; just point me in the right direction.

All good thoughts to you and TCG, sj.

On one hand I get it, much like when people wish for the 10 fingers and toes, or "as long as it's healthy," But, yes, that shit makes me uncomfortable too. And I once caught hell from the outlawa because they were worried that baby M wasn't doing as they expected and I said "Well, maybe she has a disability.(She's fine.) But I wasn't aware that what they heard was that she wasn't a keeper and they might have to throw her back. They *freaked* pf course there is a lot of disability in my family and...less visible ones in theirs. But they had, like, ten grandkids, although that might have been an insensitive time to play the odds, hindsight tells me.

But, you know, my parents were right to worry. So my default is never "Don't be ridiculous.(and early intervention could be important) It happens. Am I recruiting? Fuck no. But there are as many things I love about life as I hate.

Can someone go beat up the people who keep telling me that it is better to find out now that there is something wrong? I find it a highly insensitive thing to say to someone with a disability.

Oh, sj, so much! Thinking about you as you walk through this.

I do not have the energy to spend trying to convince people I'm okay today. I'm also trying to find the spoons to go to Trader Joe's. The pouring rain isn't helping.

Our wings are not tired.
It is okay not to be okay. Shoving spoons through the intertubes.
