Ouch weblog: individual blog entry

12 Apr 07, 1:47 PM - Blog Roundup

Posted by Emma

There has been a fair bit of traffic on the blogosphere this week, so we thought, why not treat you to some of it with a blog roundup.

had an inlightening conversation with her doctor this week,
ME: " I don't sleep. Ever"

Primary Care Physician: " Do you know why?"

ME: " I've had insomnia since I was 6. Or 3. I have an IQ of 150. I am, or was, an actor, a chef, and a writer. My parents are both alcoholics, My mom is
bipolar. I have a new boyfriend and he wants to build me a computer. I have ( lists all ailments). I lived in NYC for a decade. I was there during 9-11.
I live really near my parents now. I just turned 30. I had brain surgery. I'm too busy THINKING to actually be SLEEPING."

I'll bet!!

makes a very valid point when she says,
"Don't assume something you see me do (or not do) is because I'm autistic, just because you know that I'm autistic. The reason that I have to move from foot to foot when I stand, for instance, is because my lower legs hurt a lot if I stand on them too long so I have to stay in constant motion when I'm standing
if I don't want to deal with pain. I doubt that's because I'm autistic."

And finally, Seaneen Moloy's

What can we say about this blog other than wow. It's worth reading!

Check back soon for another blog roundup, and if you have, or know of a blog you think should be included, send it in

Thank you so much for the mention, and for reading my blog! I've often had a hard time balancing being disabled with "looking" normal with being loud and smart and generally a handful. So, knowing maybe that others might read and get something out of my venting is always affirming. Please come back anytime. i promise at some point to be less obsessed with boys. This I think is still part of the post op process ;)
