You are The Lude one. You'll just have to come to terms with that.

You're boring.

Hardly.
Me not letting you steamroll your way out of having the proper title isn't boring. rolleyes

Is 'Lude' anything like being 'Lewd'?

Has anyone been watching the olympics?

They just changed the womens tai quan do score due to a judging error.

Indeedly. Got a couple of those in the family. And I've got the dyscalculia to round out the 'dys' in our dysfunctional little clan. :p

Oh - and I meant to reply to you earlier: nice shirt! I have a Miskatonic U. bumper sticker across the side of my (sadly deceased) computer's case.

Odd question, but - how common is dyscalculia? And did you ever have difficulty with people taking you seriously about it because it didn't manifest as the more common form of dyslexia?  

[TeaDidikai]

I know that dyscalculia is harder to diagnose. While my optometrist had noticed the dyslexia early on, most of my teachers didn't even consider dyscalculia for a couple years after that.

I didn't get a bumper sticker for my car- instead I got the Miskotonic U Student Parking pass.

Significantly harder. People forget that dyslexia is a spectrum, so many don't realize that disorders such as dyscalculia exist. My roommate had a lot of difficulty with her teachers, especially math, because she reads so well. They wouldn't even consider the possibility.

I speak autistic, is this similar?

I don't know. My gut reaction is no, as the Dys-language root is based on external over internal constructs- but I do not know enough about either to firmly assert one way or another.  

[patch99329]

I speak aspergers due to family and friends. I believe such would be similar to autistic.

Sounds like the difference between Classical and Church Latin. Different enough to drive you bonkers.

(my brother and I once each read a passage aloud; then claimed that the other was pronouncing everything WRONG)

Huh?

Hey Blue? We getting together this weekend or next one?

Both are out. I had to work today, and Isaac's camping with his family this weekend while I clean house.

Next weekend is PAX. ninja

So...maybe the next?

Congratulations on your new ink and game time, BlueRose. surprised

Thanks. But the game...it was love until I finished the first dungeon. The gameplay is so broken after that--it practically cancels out all the good that the game has. I'm considering returning it. sad

How's everything treating you--and, more importantly, when will you visit WA again? heart
