Matter of Grey Matter

September 11, 2001 --
Through blurred double vision, I watched in horror as the Twin Towers in NYC crumbled to the ground. I feared I was going blind and prayed, "Please don't let these horrifying images be the last I see."

An MRI revealed a brain lesion pressing against my optic nerve. Several years of invasive tests and terrifying uncertainty followed. Finally, in December of 2004 I received my diagnosis ...

"What is MS?" Video


I began daily injections of Copaxone in June of 2005.  Although I seem to have permanent symptoms from my last exacerbation, my last MRI revealed no new lesions and no new scarring.

I recently discovered that the best prep for injection is a warm compress before and after. I no longer get unsightly bruises or huge knots and there's less pain.

Little known tidbit about Friday: I paid $600 for my very first computer in 1996. It was built to spec for one reason ... so I could play Diablo. I became addicted to the music of Tristram Village. To me, it's musical valium.

I am loved!

PEEPS ... must have Peeps!

When I was at the store today I was passing the candy aisle and I saw an entire wall of Peeps.  Every color -- yellow, purple, pink, white -- chickies and bunnies.  My eyes glazed over and I could hear the little voice in my head say, "You will buy Peeps in bulk.  Must have Peeps!"  I entered the aisle hesitantly.  I'm not supposed to eat Peeps.  They're full of sugar.  Too much sugar makes me dump.   Dumping ain't nuthin nice!  The first time I dumped I honestly thought I was dying.  Ugh.

Okay, so dumping is a great reason not to listen to the voice in my head.  Ahhh, but the voice is clever and says, "Buy Peeps in bulk.  You only have to eat them one at a time.  They keep forever.  Buy Peeps.  Must buy Peeps"  Truth be it told, I always break down and buy at least one package of Peeps every year.  I'll eat a couple and then toss the rest away.  Ohmigod!  Just thinking about crunching through the sugar coating and getting to the soft marshmallow and then the sugar mixes with the marshmallow in your mouth so you get the mix of crunchy sugar and soft marshmallow ... *blink, blink*  *drool*

Then I saw this ...

Sugar-free Peeps?  That's just wrong!  And get this.  Three Peeps for a dollar.  Three?  You can buy a pack of a gazillion for a buck.  Because they're sugar-free you only get three for a buck?  That's just wrong, too.  No self-respecting Peepisseur would be seen with a sugar-free Peep ... unless it was just to show as some bizzare conversation piece or sumthin'.  Disgusting!

Well, not so disgusting that I didn't grab a pack of pink Peeps before I checked out.  I ate one on the way home.  One when I got home and the rest, are in the freezer.  I know, I'm begging for trouble.  I'm tellin' ya, Peeps are the heroine of the candy world.

I'm of the minority anti-peepians. But I agree, sugar free peeps?? That's just wrong.

zomg. Peeeeeeps. I loves me some peeps.

I don't like them fresh though. I like to open the plastic and let them get good and stale first. They are a sugar-rushed form of heaven after that :)

I bet the sugar free ones taste like a chemical bomb after being rolled around in Splenda versus sugar. :-P

I'm glad that I never got addicted to these little guys. I have a problem with falling in love with things and not being able to control myself around them.

I guess I don't really care for marshmallows that much.

I'm glad you were able to indulge a little bit though!!

:D

Don't hurt yourself now. Heh.

Peeps.. I love peeps. And now they make them for other holidays too!

But, sugar free? I have hypoglycemia. Sugar free would be good right? Nope. Too much of a sugar free item has a rather unpleasant digestive problem for me. And.. I have never been able to eat just one peep.

One pack of peeps maybe but not just one peep.

Mmmm.... Peeeeeeps....

Seriously, everyone I know thinks I'm disgusting for loving them. Thank you for redeeming me.

...At least in my own head. And where else does it matter, right?
