Two truths and a lie

Post Reply New Topic

I think 1. Don't you have job #2?

Migraine is ebbing and flowing. Right now is an ebb.

Do you take ergotaine?

The lie is actually #2. Like you stated, the job mentioned is my present job.

I almost didn’t go to the interview, though lol

I'm not sure what ergotaine is, so I googled and it's a blood or migraine medication.

I take a beta blocker and a blood thinner because of my stroke and Maxalt for acute migraine. I don't know if those are the same family.

In 1979, at age 18:

1. I sort of got into “We are family,” by Sister Sledge, even though I was supposed to think that “Disco Sucks.”

2. I wore a tuxedo to my high school graduation.

3. I received $50 and a wallet for my high school graduation.

2. You wore a wolf suit and tails.

Yep....correct as per usual.

I actually wore a blue leisure suit with a flowered shirt.

We received our diplomas (the five of us) in the Director’s office.

Things I might do before bed:

1. Watch Animal House and / or a Disney movie.

2. Tap dance to South Pacific in my kitchen (I actually have tap shoes)

3. Extract the contents of my cranium using a butter knife.

Mmmmm.....#3 sounds sort of gory. My poor sweet lady! I wish I could help a little.

Thanks I have my electrode thingies on high now on my shoulders

I don't really have tap shoes, so 2 is my lie even though I like South Pacific.

3 is true because I'll try the cranium extraction in my imagination if this gets any worse.

In 1966, at age 5:

1. I went to a research camp for autism. I mostly stayed in the big house—-but the night before I said my first phrase ever, I stayed in a cabin by myself.

2. I had a crush on one of the teenagers who attended to me. She prompted me to ask for an orange soda.

3. I started to not fear dogs.

3. You still fear dogs. (Why did you sleep in a cabin alone? That seems wrong too!)

#3 is indeed my Lie. I can pet dogs now, and play with them—though there’s still some fear.

I remember waking up alone in the cabin, smelling hay and grass, and finding my way to the therapy room. I don’t remember saying “I see a ball,” though. There was some EEG-type machine in that room.


In 1965, at age 4:

1. I might have broken the record player my brother received for Christmas.

2. I had a crew cut.

3. I liked having my picture taken with my brother. We were wearing matching bathrobes.

I only went to camp once, but:

1. I had something akin to a nervous breakdown afterward, because of sensory overload and the trauma of being homesick.

2. It was a really fun experience and I learned to ride a horse, which led to me owning two horses a year later.

3. I didn't have any idea where I was; I actually believed I was in a different country because the drive was so long.

#2. You didn’t like camp at all.

I actually started to fear horses in camp.

My brother is bitter because I did break some of his things when I was very young, and severely autistic.

The Lie is #3. I didn’t like having my picture taken with my brother. The feeling was mutual. My brother had an obvious scowl in some pictures taken with me. We did have matching red plaid bathrobes.
