Down Syndrome, like my hazel eyes and rowdy siblings, is just a small piece of my puzzle.

(Regifting) Drinking and Driving: Uncool For All Ages

Posted by A Dose of Justice

5


Let’s see what’s happening on Facebook tonight.

It shouldn’t be hard to find a cool place to go since everyone posts

their location so burglars can rob them while they’re out.

Okay…..So my drink should fit right here.

As long as it’s in the Sippy cup, I’m good.

What the hellicoptor!

Where did those other cars come from?

I better call for help or something.

I wonder if my daddy is up?

24-hour tow my hiney!

I didn’t know I had to wait 24 hours.

I’m outta here.

Wait….This doesn’t seem right.

I’ll just “drunk-milk-dialed” my ex for the 50th time.

You’re locking me up for this?

It was skim milk! I have poor balance!

Have you met my family??

If I say I’m a turnip will you stop taking my blood? (Day: 38 & 39)

Day 38: No pictures of me for yesterday. I had to leave school early because of yuckiness. I had a fever and some other stuff that is just nobody’s business, cause a dude’s business should be private. Let’s just say it was questionable enough to make my mommy pick me up early from school.

She took me to the doctor and he said I could play the sick card and miss school today. But….He also said my liver seemed enlarged and I would need to get some blood drawn. That seemed silly to me. Why would anyone want a drawing of blood? And….Who do you call to do that?

Day 39: See how excited I am to go.

My mommy would be real big poopy head if she took a picture of me getting my blood taken. Instead she drew a quick version of my nightmare. That just makes her a little poopy head.

I’m a lot cuter than that.

Justice Blood Taken

After my torture, mommy and daddy took me to eat. I think it was more for them. I like french fries. Daddy is making a funny face to hide the fact his face looks funny.

I don’t trust daddy. He is trying to take some of my food.

I have to give him the stinky eye to keep him away.

Then we went to my sister’s school to watch her perform with her Spirit Squad and Drama Club.

“My nap was interrupted for this!” (I hope I used the right finger. My sign language is kinda rusty.)

It’s a bit blurry with bacon. (PreK Day: ?–31)

It seems like my School Days (25 – 30) have been a big blur for my mommy.  It’s no fun to have a mommy who is fuzzy headed. I don’t mean like one of those Chia pets either. That would actually be fun because I could cut her hair and it would grow back. I could play with scissors and not be in trouble.

Oh well…..I’ve been taking up dancing since my mommy has been out of it. Daddy has been off of work to help mommy. Someone has to bring home the bacon. That’s funny because my daddy is a pig. I don’t get it, but that’s what people say.

Here is my routine. Cue the music.

Dance1.

A little side glance and a pause in action for dramatic flair.

Dance2

Okay…..That’s it. We don’t have a license for anything else.

Dance3

Daddy decided I needed an education first. Headed to school this morning after a late night of dancing. I have to have my energy drink.

Drink

I guess Daddy needed my energy drink too. See ya suckers!

This regular dude is hooked on the sauce. (PreK 17 & 18)

Before school yesterday I had to lay down the law with my cat.

“NO mice, snakes, birds or squirrels going through the pet door today. I know you think it’s a funny prank to lay them inside my toy box, but it ain’t. You’re going to give me nightmares.”

Day 17 One

Go get that cat. He’s not allowed to walk away from me when I’m talking to him.

What? You aren’t going to help?

Day 17 aDay Two

Forget you then. I’ll just walk to school. I know the way.

Day 17 Three

Okay. Maybe I was out of line yesterday, but I have a problem.

I’m hooked on the sauce. “FORM OF APPLESAUCE. SHAPE OF AN APPLE!”

My mommy thought that was funny. I guess you have to be old like her to understand.

Sauce1

And…….When I don’t get the sauce fast enough, I can rage.

BE AWARE:

People with down syndrome are not always happy. I’m so emotional, I could be my own Lifetime Channel.

P.S: Mommy said don’t feel bad. I am a big tantrum faker, especially when I don’t get my way.  Just like regular dudes my age.

Getting ready for the day.

Nothing beats a good koozie to keep your juice nice and chill.

FUCK TIM

That looks about right.

I don’t need any unnecessary interruptions or lawsuits.

2 Work

OMG! What the hoobastank!

I leave for five seconds and some doo doo head tries to brick up my beverage.

3 Work

I won’t stand for this.

I’m calling the home office.

4 Work

Someone is going down for this incompetence.

6 Work

Can you hear the pain and suffering my drink went through?

Can you?

The therapy for exacerbating the claustrophobia alone….. will bankrupt you.

5 Work

Now you hold on one doggone minute.

I DO NOT HAVE A DRINKING PROBLEM!!!

7 Work

Do you hear that?

I’m drinking just fine. No problems at all.

Use Drink One

(burp)

Wow! That was a good one. I’m ready for another.

9 Work

Hey. What’s this?

I’ve seen models use these with powdered sugar on glass.

Ain’t nobody got time for that.

10 Work

Now that right there hits the spot.

11 Work

Did you get all that Mr. Home Office.

I’m fired?

Well. You can kiss my hiney.

12 Work

Actually (hiccup), I’m using it now to keep balance.

You’re just gonna have to wait in line (hiccup) for kissing.

13 Work

Too much fighting. I need another drink.

14 Work

Not feeling good.

Can someone get me down?

Mommy? Daddy? I need a mouth diaper.

Totally “My Day” Tuesday! (PreK Day 6)

Posted by A Dose of Justice

Tuesday must be MY day. Last Tuesday I did something pretty cool walking into school. I walked past the school buses and saw a kid outside. I decided to make a new friend. When I tried to say “hi” he accidently fell over. I didn’t mean to push him. Mommy and Daddy thought it was funny. Mommy said I was making a political statement. I’m not sure what she’s talking about. I like plastic people. Some of the best hugs I’ve ever gotten were from women who had some work done.

slow-down[1]

Anyway…….This is where my 2nd great Tuesday begins.

Day 6

I’m actually excited to get to the van.

Day 6-2

I tried to get in the back where I usually ride, but mommy was taking pictures and said she couldn’t show me getting into the trunk.

Day 6-3

“Okay mommy. I’ll play along.”

Day 6-4

Here I am……ready to do amazing things like……say “SQUARE” in class today. I didn’t even say it to a kid to be mean. I was actually saying it to a shape.  I don’t know if you think that’s cool or not, but it is. It is!

It’s “The Mom” here. The surgical supplies are in for Justice.

We figured it would be cheaper to take care of it ourselves. Lucky kid gets to have a Flexible Laryngoscopy, Bilateral Myringotomy w/Tubes, Tonsillectomy and an Adenoidectomy after we get back from vacation at the end of this month.

I hope my Surgery For Dummies book comes in on time.
