"CP" can mean "Crazy Person", but don't blame me.

Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Not a single day passes where I don’t hurt.

Sometimes I just get tired of always being around able-bodied people. It sucks being surrounded by a bunch of ignorant people who will never understand. 

Please tell me I’m not the only one that thinks this way?

^exact reason why I was deliriously happy to be back in a crip-dominated setting last night at a party.

They’re not all ignorant, but there are some that make you believe they’re not ignorant until they show it

Spoonie Girl (to the tune of Barbie Girl)

I’m a spoonie girl, in the spoonie world
My spoons are plastic, so not fantastic!
you can take my spoons, I’ll be in bed by noon
Just a theory, but it leaves us dreary

Come on spoonies, sing this tune-y

I’m a spoonie girl, in the spoonie world
My spoons are plastic, so not fantastic!
you can take my spoons, I’ll be in bed by noon
Just a theory, but it leaves us dreary

Come on spoonies, sing this tune-y


I’m a tough spoonie girl, in the healthy, fit world
Take my spoons, give me forks, pop my bubbles
Fellow spoonies, unite, and we’ll pool all our spoons
Maybe then we’ll have more for tomorrow
You can walk, you can talk, but beware, it costs you spoons

(uu-oooh-u)

Come on spoonies, sing this tune-y
(Ah-ah-ah-yeah)
Come on spoonies, sing this tune-y
(uu-oooh-u)

Make me walk, make me talk, do whatever you please
But that standing in line destroys both my knees
All these forks in my spine, make me feel not so fine
I need drugs, and some hugs, to kill this pain
You can walk, you can talk, but beware, it costs you spoons
You can walk, you can talk, but beware, it costs you spoons


Come on spoonies, sing this tune-y

My boyfriend (@cpmeanscrazyperson) and I are both spoonies, so we have tons of these little moments.

My girlfriend speaks the truth, lol <3
