disablities

generally disabilities arent funny...
generally

is it bad that everytime i see someone with down syndrome i say "hey i might know him" or "he looks familiar where have seen him before?"

the other day i was walking behind a blind woman, she was walking with a blind person stick...i dont know what theyre called-walking sticks

anyway she was walking kinda zig zaggy and making large swoops with her walking stick. and i thought to myself, "i wonder if they get trained with those" as if it was a skill someone could be born with or something (im a dork...but it doesnt end there)

next i thought- " if i were blind (bc thats the next logical step) i wouldnt swoop my stick as wide, itd be quick and right in front of me kind of like parkinsons" thats was mean but i laughed, anyway i'd probably trip a lot as a result

then as i was passing her i was like i wonder where i should step so she doesnt hit me...man i hope she doesnt hit me

then i saw her (with my mind's eye...whatever the hell that means) swing her walking stick at me and take me out at the knees nancy kerrigan style...even my mind is after me

i laughed out loud....walking down the street...other people might have thought i was crazy..but im funny damn it
