Oh good grief.

OkAY okAY. Third one from me in less than an hour. It has been brought discreetly to my attention that when I said "glad I'm not a cow" some of you may have been offended and thought I was implying that you (collectively) are cows. That isn't what I meant and really, if you were upset you need to unwad your panties or your boxer shorts. I don't think anyone was. I can be rude sometimes but I don't ever intend to make someone feel bad.

For those of you who are new, I will introduce myself.

The people who have been on this list for awhile know me and have gotten used to me. That or everyone secretly is planning to report me to the moderator in a big clump and get me kicked off, but I'll handle that when it happens. I'm lots of things people hate. I think antibiotic therapy and "NO" diets and Swiss tofu sprouts are stupid ideas that don't work. I think narcotic painkillers are okay and don't mean you're a weak-willed addict with a problem. I'm a short pagan lesbian with red hair and more opinions than is really healthy, and while I swear I do have tact, I often choose not to use it. But I do use swear words sometimes. Sorry. Life's short and there's no time to waste worrying about whether I called someone a cow. I'm sure no one here is overly bovine. And if you are, so what? I'm a crip who lives with my parents because I have no job and mooch off the government disability, and sometimes if there's a low pressure front coming in or I slept wrong, I can't dress myself and my mommy has to wipe my ass. Now aren't you glad to be a cow instead of that? Moooooooo. Go eat yourself a Hershey bar and enjoy it and smile, because you probably spent today wanting to scream every time you stood up or moved a joint, and nobody should have to put up with that AND a lack of Hershey bars in the same day.

So I apologize if I offend anyone -- today or on other days. I think I may be the youngest person here but I've also had this crap disease for longer than most of you. I'm always happy to talk to anyone who wants to hear from me about my experiences, and I promise not to swear too much if you are delicate. My AIM is ChaosPearl.
