Really? Autistic people have feelings we don't? I find that hard to believe, cause how would they describe them to us, and if we don't feel them, how would we understand what they were saying?

My 20 year old son doesn't speak too well, but he gets across what he wants, needs, likes, and dislikes very easily.

Wasn't trying to disparage against autistic individuals, if it seemed that way. So, if your son is autistic, can you attest to this statement that they have different feelings?

That sign is talking about the 5 senses. Sight, hearing, tasting, touching, and smelling.


Sheesh!!!! Why is this so hard!!

 

[rageoftyrael]

Why didn't you put a question mark where it ought to go? Hmmm.... simple mistake, you would say? I would agree with this. What happened was I originally asked the question not realizing that feel meant touch. You explained this, and I got it. Unfortunately, when ChristineES put her comment up, approximately a day later, I had forgotten your response, and went back to my original, first thought.

I will say before I am done that your attitude was unappreciated. It isn't as if you said this multiple times and I just ignored you. You said it once. Not twice, thrice, or more. If your patience is this lacking, I don't see how you earned even half the frubals you have.

Oh well then on behalf of your mother. I apologize for not raising you with a thicker skin.

Well I have my so called "preliminary" today for a hospital job, like WOW, do you know how hard it was for me just to get an interview or whatever(sigh) at a hospital! However I didn't brush up much on the Gi system, I will in a few. The restaurant didn't call me yet, he said that he was concerned that it's been over 10 years since I've served. I told him, "Well I do have 8 years of experience in the past and am dedicated to learning about this restaurant extensively, once I do, I believe it's like riding a bike...:biglaugh: Do you think that was appropriate? One other thing, the day of my interview I received a call from the financial aid office telling me that I am eligible for assistance with tuition for the massage therapy program(associates degree), I have a certificate but there's an organization where nurses go into hospitals and massage patients, according to the research I've done, it looks like they make pretty good money...not great but more than a NURSE's salary. Plus I could work on my own.
http://www.nanmt.org/ and an associates degree is required.

So what did I do since they called?(financial aid). Yesterday I signed up for 4 online courses, business math(yuck I don't know why I need this I took Math for nursing but I guess cause it's "business math", Personal Community and Health and Wellness, medical terminology(which I'll ace and wonder why that wasn't a requirement in nursing) and Infection control which I will ace and again wonder why I didn't have to take that for nursing, then Massage Therapy 101(I'm accepted into the program since I got all the anatomy etc out of the way) which we meet once a week for a few hours, the rest is online. God bless me for disciplining myself. I'm kind of excited though! If nothing else works out, well...I have this to look forward to. I'm so sick of doing nothing the past year...the last job really made me hate life for a while. Wish me luck on this preliminary thing...) Weellll better go brush up real quick. :run:

A wallpaper app on my Nook caused the entire thing to crash. I had to set it back to factory defaults, and I'm having to reroot it. I briefly experimented with putting Jellybean on it, but it seemed very unstable, and I was not able to find how to access my books, which defeats the point of having an ereader. So I'm going back with ClockWorkMod, even though many apps are not compatible the performance was much more stable and I didn't get for the apps anyways.

Well again I do not feel so confident about it. She said she has lots of other applicants to consider(which probably have med surge experience) and this guy will give me a call(HR) within 2 and a half weeks. She did NOT ask me anything about what I know about the GI system etc. hahaha:slap:

I wasn't offended. I was just being a little silly.

 

[rageoftyrael]

You try to make feel like a fool with your statement, and you are surprised that it upsets me? Then you start talking about my mother? Normally, this kind of thing wouldn't bother me, but with this statement, you have not only belittled what I was saying, you have belittled my mother as well. How is this okay?

didn't see that coming.... my doctor told me I'm to healthy to be there and kicked me out

My mom got "The Odd Life of Timothy Green" from the library. I saw this movie in theaters with my aunt and grandmother and I balled my eyes out. What are the chances I'm gonna cry again?

Well... We got new doors and windows, the good, it looks great! The bad, they frak'd up a lot of stuff. We're not signing customer satisfaction until they fix it.

My dog is sleeping in my bed with her head resting on my pillow.
I swear she is a human in a dog's body

Such an adorable creature
