What’s Pissing Me Off - The April 6th Edition
To all over you annoying male C5-6 (and lower) quads out there (I’m sorry to say this…), but fuck you.
I’m SO sick and tired of these machismo “know it all” SCI men who have the same injury level as me, and tell me I didn’t work hard enough in rehab and that I should be able to transfer myself and do all of my OWN cares.
Fuck you for being so pompous!
What?? You don’t think I worked my ass off hard enough in rehab to try to be as independent as possible? Needing PCA’s everyday SUCKS ASS, I hate it, so how can you accuse me of being lazy?
Simply put: Men, with SCI or without SCI, will always and forever have more (and stronger) muscle groups than us females. It’s a proven fact. THAT’S why you’ll commonly see a C6 quad guy who can transfer himself, but a woman with the same injury who cannot. Saying she’s lazy is nothing but offensive.
Ok, rant over.

PS. This just really needed to be said. I’ve had this continual criticism directed towards me from SCI men for 14+ years. Stop being jackholes, ok?

It’s no secret us wheely-ladies have issues with our feet swelling by the end of the day, which have therefore caused many of us to give up our passion for sexy shoes and donate our beloved shoe collections, post-injury, to friends, or even worse, complete strangers (the horror!)
Well…not so quick, my chicas. Naughty Monkey Shoes may be the miracle you’ve been waiting for.
These sexy shoes run wider than your average, annoyingly narrow heel, enabling us to buy the trendiest shoes of the moment, that still fit good by the end of the day. Sweetness!
Here’s a tre lovely cornucopia of Naughty Monkey Shoes.

PS. Naughty Monkey unfortunately does not have their own site.
PPS. Stick with shorter heels that also have a strap over the foot, so they’ll not only be unable to fall off your foot with ease everytime you cross your legs, but the shorter, wider heel will fit better on your foot plate/rest.

You guys simply MUST watch this new video by Mariah Carey (currently #1) called “Touch My Body.”
Imagine if a “Geek Squad” type employee got called to fix Ms. Carey’s DSL…an hysterical fantasy ensues….

…is that no matter how careful you are, your plaster 1 foot and lower on ALL OF YOUR WALLS, AND your carpet (if you have some that is, vs wood floors) WILL eventually (I guarantee you) get ruined.
So save up, my wheely-friends of the world. You’ll need a nice savings buffer to make your home seem…umm….presentable, after you’ve dented, cracked, made holes, in the walls throughout your home thanks to your trixxy back wheels or annoyingly sharp-edged foot rests.
I know I have. Of course, the copious amounts of red wine I drink befote the plaster demolition or carpet staining commences, likely doesn’t help.
