During a telephone conversation yesterday …

The woman I was speaking with asserted the following:

It’s really a shame how it is stigmatized by so many people. They assume you brought it upon yourself. They just don’t have any clue. If people were just better informed and less judgmental … I wouldn’t receive the looks. And trust me … you can tell when people are looking. It’s embarassing !

The topic of our conversation …

And basis for the comment:

Her cold sore.

Kinda puts my whole transsexual issue into perspective now, huh? πŸ˜‰ LOL

  1. sounds like another victim of the slick willy oval office to me. those “cold sores” can last for years ya know.

  2. No kidding ! πŸ™‚ It was making a “mountain out of a molehill” …

    Or would that be a “cold sore out of a molehill”. LOL πŸ™‚

  3. Amy, Amy, Amy…..I don’t insult friends or even friends of friends….the ‘muppet’ & ‘gimp’ terms were directed at the nice lady to whom you were talking. I guess I find it somewhat funny that she could have made such a mountain of of a molehilll (so to speak)….honesly – it’s a very insular world some of us live in!!! And yes, I know you have a ‘funny’ sense of humor.

  4. My old doc many years ago suggested when I felt a cold sore starting to dampen the corner of my mouth where it started and dab on table salt. It knocks out most of mine before they progress.

  5. You know, I always thought it was a “coal sore”. All my life I’ve looked down on people, thinking “stop sucking on dirty black rocks”.

    You know, I always thought it was a “cole sore”. I’ve always avoided eating slaw as a result.

    You know,

  6. Hey Clio !!!!!! πŸ™‚ Nice to see you posting again !! *hug*

    Ahhhh … who’s the muppet? Me or the woman I was speaking with ?

    If it was me … well, I really can’t argue with that … πŸ™‚

    Though if it was the woman I was speaking with …

    I don’t think she is … she has no idea of my past and we were having a very pleasant conversation about all things trivial and at one point I was giving her my home remedy to defeat a cold sore attack and that’s when she said what she said …

    I just thought it was interesting how easily it could sound as applying to t’ism or a variety of other situations. (Actually I found it funny, but that’s just because I have a dysfunctional sense of humor.) *shrug* πŸ™‚

  7. As long as I’m the center of attention,

    I’m perfectly content with not being the center of all things weird !! πŸ™‚ *snicker* lol

  8. Its interesting…sometimes we AREN’T the center of all things weird…

    Looks like your spam filter is fixed gf…
