Blog Roundup
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.
Puglet 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!!
Ballast Existenz 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 Pole to Polar: The secret life of a manic depressive
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 ;)
Ooh. Thanks!
(Although my name is Seaneen Molloy!)
Cool blog...it made me laugh. I needed that. You may be interested in my blog. it is found at www.onecandream.com/blog. There is a lot of craziness going on in the disability world where I am.
