Now here's something almost completely different!

I'm like Ralph in that I suffer from AS. And not everyone has sympathy for me since it's not something I can point to and say, "See? That right there - that's my AS injury." I know I've never seen a telethon raising funds to fight it.

This came to me as I was thinking about something quite different and demanded to be written down. I think Trope had the biggest hand in this one. She was quite insistent, too.

Enjoy. Or not. But do think about it.




Life isn't a support system for writing. It's the other way around.
