Hey, Blue Suede Shoe, In trying to figure out why you seem so irritable, to so many members lately, I decided to read up a bit on MS, as you said that was part of the problem. In doing so, this is what I found:
Cognitive Functions Affected in MS
In MS, certain functions are more likely to be affected than others:
Memory (acquiring, retaining, and retrieving new information)
Attention and concentration (particularly divided attention)
Information processing (dealing with information gathered by the five senses)
Executive functions (planning and prioritizing)
Visuospatial functions (visual perception and constructional abilities)
Verbal fluency (word-finding)
Certain functions are likely to remain intact:
General intellect
Long-term (remote) memory
Conversational skill
Reading comprehension
Now, I'm not real sure if any of these functions are what's causing your unexcusable verbal batterings, as of late, and to so many members, but if so, I am sorry for that. The only other thing that I could come up with, that might be the problem, is the fact that you only wear one shoe. This makes perfect sense to me, as to why you would be off balance, so my suggestion is, to slip on that other Blue Suede Shoe, thus making you, Blue Suede Shoes, and therefore, more on an even keel.. I think this might help. I certainly hope so. And Blue...Have a nice day!!!
I have to work tomorrow, but I'll check in on you tomorrow night. Looking forward to seeing you then. :)
As for me, I am totally
As for me, I am totally Susanne Vega's song "Toms Diner." Especially at the end when she says, "Oh this rain it will continue till the morning as I'm listening through the bells of the Cathedral......I am thinking of your voice......Now that was
a one hit wonder which was so approiate for me in the mid 90's. I lived that song!
Wait, I still do! ha,ha,ha.....Or I mean, Da da da da, Da da da da, Da da da da da, Da da da da....
I feel ya, KIDROCKET...hadn't
I feel ya, KIDROCKET...hadn't heard the song in a long time but I did really enjoy her thinking of someone's voice through the bells of a Cathedral part ;) That was pretty sweet ;) Thanks for the fun thoughts, smiles, and music. :)
I got the song! Roll on
I got the song! Roll on roller coaster, baby roll on. Don't live life like your dying, live it like your dying to live.
Dying to live, got it :)
Dying to live, got it :) Roll On, RJL and thanks a ton for your upbeat, positive, honest, friendly, insightful, and fun presence here! :) You light up my days! :)
And I'm an odd cat who's
And I'm an odd cat who's quirky. Ehh, what do ya do. It's who I am and y'all are who y'all are. It's what makes us. Reminds me of Edie singing what I am is what I am, are you are what you are or what. Philosophy is a walk on a slippery rock and religion is a smile on a dog!
Yeah, I'm a quirky odd cat..
Yeah, I'm a quirky odd cat...pussy or bitch, aloof or in your face lovey dovey I guess are some of my spectrums ;) LOL :) I pity da fool who can put up with me...ima handful ;) for I am what I am and I love the religion of my dog's smile :) I'm gonna Roll On while I walk those slippery rocks in the storybook of life ;) I'm praying any man of mine will love all of me...and we could someday giggle about all the things about me that bug the shit out of him LOL :) Sometimes comedy isn't pretty but it sure takes the edge off :)
I LOVE YOU GALS!!! :) :) :)
I LOVE YOU GALS!!! :) :) :) You make me smile...BIG TIME! Thank you for saying such nice things; my heart and soul are all filled up with your loving ways. You are so kind. Thank you. I, too, stand on my own two feet, say what I know and feel to be truth, and am humble enough to continue to incorporate others' perspectives and am willing to learn and grow. I have found, though I do sometimes feel all alone walking, that I have loved ones and friends walking with me to comfort and cheer me in my doubts and challenges and who encourage and celebrate with me good things happening. Thank you my friends for walking with me on my wonderful life's journey. I treasure each of you. :) Hope your day is as lovely as each of you are! :)
I'm bad about doing that but
I'm bad about doing that but only if it feels right because sometimes you get a bad feeling. My husband gets on to me because here I am , a girl by myself, and I tell him I'm a tough cookie and I'll be fine. They needed it more than I did. I hate it especially when their holding a sign saying they are vets. A lot of them end up that way due to PTSD and find it hard to function in a regular society because they feel they don't fit when actually they probably fit more than they know yet there are things they have been through that we will never know and it's because of them. So I never hesitate in that situation.
I agree!! Here's a song I
I agree!! Here's a song I love and its so true.

Your husband probably gets on
Your husband probably gets on you because he loves you so much and worries about you even though you both know you're a tough cookie and will be fine. I'm a tough cookie will be fine kinda gal, too, only when I'm not, and my man somehow knows, even before I do sometimes, when my I'm not's are showing up...bless his beautiful, loving heart. I don't know what I'd do without him...he is so sweet and intelligent, loving and smart...and funny, definitely funny fo sure. He's beyond my wildest dreams awesome!:) RJL, from all I've heard - and even though he makes you late for appointments lol - you got a good man so hold on healthy tight to him and I hope he does the same for you because you are a good woman...a fine, spicey, talented, smart woman. He's got it good and doesn't wanna lose it...I can't fault him for that ;) And yes, I've been taken a bit with my generousity, but I've developed discernment for those "bad feeling" ones. I double check on those to see if it's my bad feeling judgmental self because of what they'll do with my money, if so I give to the person and work on myself; if it's a bad feeling weird vibes kinda icky creepy feel, then I don't give to them. I can't solve it all :( but God knows I try :) and He's often crackin up because of my efforts lol :) Anywho, I do make cross the board vet exceptions, especially in light of PTSD. It's not easy either to take PTSD into consideration when I hear of horrible bunker escapades and other news stories where someone is villified (I do not excuse their behavior, I'm only trying to understand a bit more) for horrific acts, but I always wonder when I hear it's someone who is connected to military experiences what role PTSD played in their actions. The often bizarre actions or violence, well I just can't help but wonder.

This song was playing on my car radio on the way to the store today,..as I left the highway on my way down the ramp a man was standing with a card board sign that read in black marking,...Angry? Frustrated? Take it out on a bum.,.... hahahhhah I turned up the music (the window way already down,.for it was a beatuful day) and I sang so loud with the music,...Im so cold Im so cold Im so cold,.....I threw him a peace sign as I continued on my way,.....BTW, Im not cold but as the old saying goes be careful what you ask for.,..forgive me if it seems off topic.
That's where the term ~"Our
That's where the term ~"Our Big Dysfunctional Family" came from---Because we fight and snarl at each other sometimes---doesn't mean we stop loving them. Believe me---Blue and I have gotten into it on more then one occasion---that doesn't mean I stopped loving her as my Friend :-)
And she'll always be my Friend :-)
She just doesn't like Bob---which I think is fucking hilarious!!!!!!!!!! LMMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!
The rest of us LOVE YOU ~Bob :-)
Exactly!! :)
Exactly!! :)
Ditto! :)
Ditto! :)
I have to say blue was very
I have to say blue was very helpful to me many times and always came out with the latest news and used to be very uplifting and also"religious for those who are not" but something happened. I'm not sure what but things kinda turned sour and she snapped at me and questioned my achievements and beliefs and I don't know what happened but not the same informative, positive blue. Then came the name dropping and attacking others and I don't know what's going on blue but I don't dislike you, I just think you have something in your life going on right now that's not making you to happy and for that I'm sorry. Yes Montana likes to talk and is religious . Since when could people not express their views on here and I find her intellectually challenging and absolute positive and happy, good conversation as do others. She made me understand one thing in particular that I just couldn't grasp and she put it in such a beautiful way. Not mean or ugly or questioning but positive, enlightening and beautiful. Thanks Montana , BB, Misbehavin, Roxy and all the rest. One must know the facts before forming an opinion and being one of those who was attacked , not sure why, I understand where I Believe is coming from. And believe has also been a special person. I bet a lot of you forget the guy who was down on his luck who couldn't afford a birthday present for his son and his son was an idol of kid rock. How she bought hime the new cd just in case he didn't get that call from Kid. To me that is not a bad person and I have never heard her be ugly unless defending herself as I did. None of us are ruthless. We are just a bunch of fun , loving, happy go lucky people who care until we are attacked and even then we try to be understanding but that only goes so far. Can't let people walk all over you like that because guess what? If you do they will continue.
Thank you again for your kind
Thank you again for your kind words, RJL. I agree with all you said. And what a sweet thing for I BELIEVE to do for a kid. And I BELEIVE, I'm with you...I walk my own path...but it is so nice when my path is running parallel with good people, good people like you I BELIEVE, RJL, Ms B, BB, RoadDogg, Blue (I miss her intelligent on the ball presence), and all the rest of this awesome family! I LOVE YOU GUYS! ;)

One foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel......
Hey blue,
Hey blue,
havent been on in a while but count me in for being on YOUR side. I used to love coming here and posting things and tellin everyone how i love the kid. Still do (kinda). Still think the new record sucks but i bought it anyway. But the thing that deterred me the most is that goofball montana and her preachy crap and dorky comments constantly fillin the boards. I dont even read em anymore. Im not a religous person and i feel this site has turned into a big sunday school bible story. With all the ass kissin. Seems like anyone with any feeling other than the current status quo gets blasted, so my comment to that is .. kiss it. Ima say whatever i want. Starting with wheres the badass we love so much??
~So when did the Massengill
~So when did the Massengill Islands release the prisoner?? Your comments are mean and negative---there is a fucking shit-load of downer times out in Life. It's nice to come in here and be uplifted.
